Fiber-tip high-temperature sensor based on multimode interference.

A fiber-tip high-temperature sensor based on multimode interference is demonstrated both theoretically and experimentally. The temperature sensor presented can measure a broad temperature interval ranging from room temperature to 1089 °C. An average sensitivity of 11.4 pm/°C is achieved experimentally.
