High-sensitivity strain sensor based on two different specialty fibers and the Vernier effect

What we believe to be a novel strain sensor based on a three-core fiber (3MCF-V) and the Vernier effect was developed and characterized, offering a wide strain measurement range and temperature compensation. The sensor combined a Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) formed by a hollow-core fiber (HCF) a...
