Abstract

In the proposed work we would like to present a stainless steel (SS) based pressure sensor using a split boss diaphragm mounted with a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) at its centre. This proposed stress transfer mechanism provides maximum stress to the fiber, resulting in improved sensitivity. The sensor is fabricated and tested for its performance for both static as well as dynamic pressure and is also benchmarked with a flat diaphragm pressure sensor. The developed sensor exhibits an enhanced pressure sensitivity of 0.742 nm/bar, which is ~10 times higher than the flat diaphragm based sensor. The sensor's dynamic sensing characteristics of peak output, rise time were 4.94 nm and 1.2 ms respectively. © 2021 National Institute of Optoelectronics. All rights reserved.
