High-sensitivity detection of vibrations under high temperatures is a topic of great interest in modern engineering such as thermal engine deep-sea aquaculture factory ship, aerospace, high temperature casting, energy, etc. As traditional accelerometers and some fiber optic F-P accelerometers have shown their sensing limits at about 400 °C and 650 °C, respectively, a high temperature fiber optic F-P accelerometer based on MEMS technology is proposed. To obtain a high-performance chip for the sensor, an examination of the theoretical performance of an L and Г-shaped cantilever beam diaphragm shows a sensitivity of 15.

We propose and fabricate a novel ring-core photonic crystal fiber made of a circular ring core surrounded by a cladding constituted of air holes organized in a first circular ring surrounded by hexagonal ones. The fiber efficiently supports four different groups of orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes. The effective indices of spin-orbit aligned and spin-orbit anti-aligned modes in the same OAM modes group are separated by at least 2.

Thanks to a double-frequency phase modulation scheme, we report a vector Brillouin optical time-domain analyzer (BOTDA). This BOTDA has a high immunity level to noise, and it features a phase spectrogram capability. It is well suited for complex situations involving several acoustic resonances, such as high-order longitudinal modes.
