Abstract
A temperature measurement device includes a Fabry-Pérot resonator constructed of an inorganic optical material on an end of an optical fiber. Light in the optical fiber couples into a cavity of the Fabry-Pérot resonator and resonates at a resonance that varies with temperature of the Fabry-Pérot resonator. A detector receives output light from the Fabry-Pérot resonator and produces a signal indicating a detected resonance. Computing circuitry receives the signal, determines a temperature of the Fabry-Pérot resonator based on the detected resonance and a relationship that correlates the detected resonance with the temperature of the Fabry-Pérot resonator, and outputs a temperature measurement. The cavity may include a channel comprised of a material having a different refractive index than surrounding material. The temperature measurement device may include multiple Fabry-Pérot resonators. The inorganic optical material enables the temperature measurement device to output a temperature measurement that extends to at least 900° C.
