1. Basic principles
As the grating period changes, the wavelength reflected by the fiber Bragg grating will correspondingly change.To sense stress or temperature changes. For humidity sensitive optical fibers, as humidity increases, the fiber absorbs water and expands, increasing the grating period; When the temperature decreases, the fiber shrinks due to dehydration, reducing the grating period. In addition, it is necessary to add temperature sensing fibers or fibers with different humidity sensitivity coefficients for mutual calibration.
2. Production process
Our company achieves humidity sensing by changing the composition of the polyimide fiber coating layer to increase the humidity sensitivity of the coating material.
3. Product advantages

(4) Excellent mechanical properties
(5) Long lifespan
(6) Quasi distributed humidity sensing
4.Typical applications
Quasi distributed continuous humidity sensing for cable-stayed bridges, grain depots, cotton and linen storage warehouses, and other places that require strict humidity monitoring.
