Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We have utilized a traveling acoustic pulse in a two-mode optical fiber to create a moving beam splitter to couple light from LP_<01> to LP_<11> mode. As these optical modes have different group velocities, a variable intermodal delay is generated as a function acoustic pulse position in the fiber. The device can be used in low-coherence interferometry to scan time delay for making fast extended range absolute measurement using simple analog electronic circuits. With this scanning technique we demonstrate measurement of absolute strain over 1600 με in the temperature range 20-60 ℃ with resolutions of the order of 40 με and 0.7 ℃, respectively, employing highly birefringent fibers as sensing elements.
