Abstract

A polarimetric fiber-optic CT has been developed by using a sensing coil made of a length of sun fiber. A Faraday rotator mirror is attached to the end of the sensor coil to double the sensitivity and to suppress the residual linear birefringence effect. From the current measurements, the linear error no more than ${\pm}2[%]$ was obtained. The output of spun fiber sensor coil was compared with those of the twisted- and the flint glass fiber's, and it fumed out to almost 50 times, 2 times more sensitive, respectively.

대전류 측정용 편광 분석형 광섬유 CT를 개발하였다. 센서코일은 스펀 광섬유의 끝단에 FRM 반사경을 부착하여 개방형으로 구성하였으며, 전류측정 실험을 통한 출력신호의 선형화 오차는 ${\pm}2[%]$ 이내였다. 비틀림 광섬유와 flint glass 광섬유 센서코일을 동일한 조건에서 실험하여 비교 검토한 결과, 스펀 광섬유가 각각 50배, 2배 큰 전류측정 민감도를 가지고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.
