Abstract

An optical fiber sensor in a nuclear environment is an appealing technology as optical sensors are immune to electromagnetic interference and they offer a simple way to carry sensing signal out of the harsh environment in the form of light. In this paper, we design a reflective long period grating (LPG) that can perform in a nuclear environment and show the effects of coating length and coverage on reflected spectrum for the first time.
