Principle of Fiber Bragg Grating Weighing Sensor

The fundamental principle behind the operation of an FBG is, where light traveling between media of different refractive indices may both and at the interface. The refractive index will typically alternate over a defined length. The reflected wavelength (), called the Bragg wavelength, is defined by the relationship, where is the effective refractive index of the fiber core and is the grating period. The effective refractive.
