Abstract
The magnetic field is a vital physical quantity in nature that is closely related to human production life. Magnetic field sensors (namely magnetometers) have significant application value in scientific research, engineering applications, industrial productions, and so forth. Accompanied by the continuous development of magnetic materials and fiber-sensing technology, fiber sensors based on the Magneto-Refractive Effect (MRE) not only take advantage in compact structure, superior performance, and strong environmental adaptability but also further meet the requirement of the quasi-distributed/distributed magnetic field sensing; they manifest potential and great application value in space detection, marine environmental monitoring, etc. Consequently, the present and prevalent Magneto-Refractive Magnetic Field Fiber Sensors (MR-MFSs) are briefly summarized by this paper, proceeding from the perspective of physicochemical properties; design methods, basic performance and properties are introduced systematically as well. Furthermore, this paper also summarizes key fabrication techniques and future development trends of MR-MFSs, expecting to provide ideas and technical references for staff engaging in relevant research.

Magnetic field sensor based on a dual-frequency optoelectronic oscillator using cascaded magnetostrictive alloy-fiber Bragg grating-Fabry Perot and fiber Bragg grating-Fabry Perot filters. OPTICS EXPRESS 2018; 26:27628-27638. [PMID: 30469825 DOI: 10.1364/oe.26.027628] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2018] [Accepted: 09/03/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
A magnetic field sensor using a dual-frequency optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) incorporating cascaded magnetostrictive alloy-fiber Bragg grating-Fabry Perot (MA-FBG-FP) and FBG-FP filters is proposed and demonstrated. In the OEO resonant cavity, two microwave signals are generated, whose oscillation frequencies are determined by the FBG-FP filter and MA-FBG-FP filter filters with two ultra-narrow notches and two laser sources. Due to the characteristics of MA and FBG, the two generated microwave signals show different magnetic field and temperature sensitivities. By monitoring the variations of two oscillating frequencies and the beat signal using a digital signal processor, the simultaneous measurement for the magnetic field and temperature can be realized. The proposed sensor has the advantages of high-speed and high-resolution measurement, which make it very attractive for practical magnetic field sensing applications. The sensitivities of the proposed OEO sensor for magnetic field and temperature are experimentally measured to be as high as -38.4MHz/Oe and -1.23 or -2.45 GHz/°C corresponding to the MA-FBG-FP filter and FBG-FP filter, respectively.

Abstract
A magnetic field sensor based on the integration of a high birefringence photonic crystal fiber and a composite material made of Terfenol particles and an epoxy resin is proposed. An in-fiber modal interferometer is assembled by evenly exciting both eigenemodes of the HiBi fiber. Changes in the cavity length as well as the effective refractive index are induced by exposing the sensor head to magnetic fields. The magnetic field sensor has a sensitivity of 0.006 (nm/mT) over a range from 0 to 300 mT with a resolution about ±1 mT. A fiber Bragg grating magnetic field sensor is also fabricated and employed to characterize the response of Terfenol composite to the magnetic field.
