Practical Application of Fiber Optic Gas Sensors

These sensors are essential tools for monitoring temperature and gas compositions in harsh environments such as gas turbine combustion chambers. Researchers are studying a number of configurations and mechanisms to detect specific gases and ways to enhance. Optical fibre gas sensors are capable of remote sensing, working in various environments, and have the potential to outperform conventional metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) gas sensors. Fiber optic sensors' inherent benefits of lightweight, compact size, and low attenuation were actively leveraged to overcome. This paper reports recent development and application of optical fiber gas sensors using absorption spectroscopy, including open-path gas sensors using fiber coupled micro-optic cells and photonic bandgap (PBG) fibers.
