Fibercore supplies Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) written into our specialty optical fibers. These FBGs may be used for strain sensing, temperature sensing, acoustic sensing, accelerometers, chemical sensing, humidity sensing, and many other applications. Fibercore uses a variety of FBG inscription techniques, including femtosecond and UV laser methods, to optimize the FBG performance to the application. The femtosecond method allows operating temperatures up to 700°C and beyond as well as enabling cost-effective FBG arrays. The UV method is optimized for spectral quality in less extreme applications.
