Abstract
We propose an optical gas sensor, which consists of a hollow core photonic bandgap fiber (HC-PBGF) and fiber Bragg grating (FBG), for the detection of acetylene gas. The gas detection scheme is uniquely characterized by modulating the Bragg wavelength of the fiber Bragg grating around a selected absorption line of gas filled in the photonic bandgap fiber. In the measurement, a 2m-long HC-PBGF and FBG with a Bragg wavelength of 1539.02nm were used. The FBG was modulated at 2Hz. We demonstrated that the optical fiber gas sensor was able to selectively measure the 2.5% and 5% of acetylene gases.
