    Temperature drift of fiber optic grating temperature sensor

    In this paper we review the literature related to the long-term wavelength drift of FBGs at high temperature and provide our recent results of more than 4000 h of high temperature testing in the 900–1000 °C range. The regenerated fiber Bragg grating was produced by annealing a “seed” fiber Bragg grating recorded on SMF-28 hydrogen-loaded. This example demonstrates a temperature sensor based on fiber Bragg gratings (FBG). The temperature-dependent change of the refractive indices of the fiber, consequently the shift of its Bragg wavelength, is used as a measure of the temperature.
