Optical sensors based on Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG) are becoming increasingly popular. But just how does a fiber Bragg grating work? Our experts answer this and other questions. A Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) operates on the principle of wavelength-selective reflection due to a periodic modulation of the refractive index in the core of an optical fiber. When broadband light propagates through the fiber, a narrowband spectral component is reflected back, while the rest is. A fiber bragg grating can be used as an inline optical filter to block certain wavelengths. The fundamental principle behind its working operation is Fresnel reflection.
