To meet the pressure measurement requirements of deep earth exploration, we propose an OFPS (optical fiber pressure sensor) with self-temperature compensation based on MEMS technology. A spectral extraction and filtering algorithm, based on FFT (fast Fourier transform), was designed to independently demodulate the composite spectra of multiple FP (Fabry–Pérot) cavities, enabling the simultaneous measurement of pressure and temperature parameters. The sensor was fabricated by etching on an SOI (silicon on insulator) and bonding with glass to form pressure-sensitive FP cavities, with the glass itself serving as the temperature-sensitive component as well as providing temperature compensation for pressure sensing. Experimental results showed that within the pressure range of 0–100 MPa, the sensor exhibited a sensitivity of 0.566 nm/MPa, with a full-scale error of 0.34%, and a linear fitting coefficient (R2) greater than 0.9999. Within the temperature range of 0–160 °C, the temperature sensitivity of the glass cavity is 0.0139 nm/°C and R2 greater than 0.999. Full article

The five-hole pressure probe based on Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology is designed to meet the needs of engine inlet pressure measurement. The probe, including a pressure-sensitive detection unit and a five-hole probe encapsulation structure, combines the advantages of a five-hole probe with fiber optic sensing. The pressure-sensitive detection unit utilizes silicon-glass anodic bonding to achieve the integrated and batch-producible manufacturing of five pressure-sensitive Fabry–Perot (FP) cavities. The probe structure and parameters of the sensitive unit were optimized based on fluid and mechanical simulations. The non-scanning correlation demodulation technology was applied to extract specific cavity lengths from multiple interference surfaces. The sealing platform was established to analyze the sealing performance of the five-hole probe and the pressure-sensitive detection unit. The testing platform was established to test the pressure response characteristics of the probe. Experimental results indicate that the probe has good sealing performance between different air passages, making it suitable for detecting pressure from multiple directions. The pressure responses are linear within the range of 0–250 kPa, with the average pressure sensitivity of the five sensors ranging from 11.061 to 11.546 nm/kPa. The maximum non-linear error is ≤1.083%. Full article

Pressure sensing plays an important role in many industrial fields; conventional electronic pressure sensors struggle to survive in the harsh environment. Recently microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) fiber-optic Fabry–Perot (FP) pressure sensors have attracted great interest. Here we review the basic principles of MEMS fiber-optic FP pressure sensors and then discuss the sensors based on different materials and their industrial applications. We also introduce recent progress, such as two-photon polymerization-based 3D printing technology, and the state-of-the-art in this field, e.g., sapphire-based sensors that work up to 1200 °C. Finally, we discuss the limitations and opportunities for future development. Full article

The characteristics of optical fiber MEMS pressure sensors are easily affected by temperature, so effective temperature compensation can improve the accuracy of the sensor. In this paper, the temperature characteristics of optical fiber MEMS pressure sensors are studied, and a temperature compensation method by converting the wavelength is proposed. The influence of target temperature and data point selection on the compensation effect is studied, and the effectiveness of the method is verified by the temperature compensation of sensors before and after aging. When the converted target temperature is 25 °C, the pressure measurement accuracy of the sensor is improved from 1.98% F.S. to 0.38% F.S. within the range of 5–45 and 0–4 MPa. The method proposed in this paper can not only improve the accuracy but also make the regular calibration more operable. Full article

Pressure sensors have important prospects in wind pressure monitoring of transmission line towers. Optical pressure sensors are more suitable for transmission line towers due to its anti-electromagnetic interference. However, the fiber pressure sensor is not a suitable choice due to expensive and bulky. In this paper, a compact optical Fabry–Pérot (FP) pressure sensor for wind pressure measurement was developed by MEMS technology. The pressure sensor consists of a MEMS sensing chip, a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (Vcsel), and a photodiode (PD). The sensing chip is combined with an FP cavity and a pressure sensing diaphragm which adopts the square film and is fabricated by Silicon on Insulator (SOI) wafer. To calibrate the pressure sensor, the experimental platform which consists of a digital pressure gauge, a pressure loading machine, a digital multimeter, and a laser driver was set up. The experimental results show that the sensitivity of the diaphragm is 117.5 nm/kPa. The measurement range and sensitivity of the pressure sensor are 0–700 Pa and 115 nA/kPa, respectively. The nonlinearity, repeatability, and hysteresis of the pressure sensor are 1.48%FS, 2.23%FS, and 1.59%FS, respectively, which lead to the pressure accuracy of 3.12%FS. Full article

This study describes a novel fiber optic extrinsic Fabry–Perot interferometric (EFPI) ultrasonic sensor comprising a low-cost and high-performance silicon diaphragm. A vibrating diaphragm, 5 μm thick, was fabricated by using the Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) processing technology on a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer. The Fabry–Perot (FP) cavity length was solely determined during the manufacturing process of the diaphragm by defining a specific stepped hole on the handling layer of the SOI wafer, which made the assembly of the sensor easier. In addition, the use of cheap and commercially available components and MEMS processing technology in the development of the sensing system, limited the cost of the sensor. The experimental tests showed that the minimum detectable ultrasonic pressure was 1.5 mPa/sqrt(Hz) −0.625 mPa/sqrt(Hz) between 20 kHz and 40 kHz. As a result, this sensor has the potential to successfully detect weak ultrasonic signals. Full article
