Abstract
An optical fiber temperature sensor includes an optical transceiver module, a transmission fiber and a sensing head. When the transmission fiber is a polarization maintaining fiber, the sensing head includes a temperature sensing element and a fiber reflector, the temperature sensing element is a section of polarization maintaining fiber. The transmission fiber is fusion spliced with the temperature sensing element, an angle between a polarization axis of the transmission fiber and that of the temperature sensing element is 45 degree at the fusion splicing point. When the transmission fiber is a single-mode fiber, the sensing head includes a polarizer. An angle between a polarization axis of the polarization maintaining fiber connecting the temperature sensing element with the polarizer and that of the polarization maintaining fiber of the temperature sensing element is 45 degree at the fusion splicing point. The present invention is of simple principle and structure, and facilitates manufacturing.
