A novel intensity demodulated refractive index (RI) sensor is theoretically and experimentally demonstrated based on the front-tapered single-mode-multimode-single-mode (FT-SMS) fiber structure. The front taper is fabricated in a section of multimode fiber by flame-heated drawing technique. The intensity feature in the taper area is analyzed through the beam propagation method and the comprehensive tests are then conducted in terms of RI and temperature. The experimental results show that, in FT-SMS, the relative sensitivity is -342.815 dB/RIU in the range of 1.33~1.37. The corresponding resolution reaches 2.92 × 10 RIU, which is more than four times higher than that in wavelength demodulation. The temperature sensitivity is 0.307 dB/°C and the measurement error from cross-sensitivity is less than 2 × 10. In addition, fabricated RI sensor presents high stability in terms of wavelength (±0.045 nm) and intensity (±0.386 dB) within 2 h of continuous operation.

Assessing the internal quality of fruits is crucial in food chemistry and quality control, and bruises on peaches can affect their edible value and storage life. However, the early detection of slight bruises in yellow peaches is a major challenge, as the symptoms of slight bruises are difficult to distinguish. Herein, this study aims to develop a more simple and efficient structured-illumination reflectance imaging system (SIRI) and algorithms for the early nondestructive detection of slight bruises in yellow peaches.

A self-developed Michelson interferometer (MI) is used to demodulate the frequency signal via an electrically controlled optical shifter. The two complementary outputs from the interferometer are detected using a balanced detector, which suppresses the common-mode noise of the fiber link.

This study improves the system by relocating an external cavity tunable laser (ECTL) to the transmission end. Directly injecting the SL into the ECTL modulates the output light and uses the high-power ECTL light for transmission, reducing loss.

However, the sensitivity of these systems to vibrational noise, especially during the compression and expansion cycles of the cold head in a Gifford-McMahon cycle refrigerator (GMCR), poses a significant challenge. To mitigate this, we have crafted an innovative methodology for characterizing low-frequency residual vibrational noise in closed-cycle cryogenic trapped-ion systems.
