Résumé | Fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) are extensively used to perform high-temperature measurements in harsh environments, however the drift of the characteristic Bragg wavelength affects their long-term stability resulting in an erroneous temperature measurement. Herein we report the most precise and accurate measurements of wavelength drifts available up to date on high-temperature FBGs. The measurements were performed with a set of packaged π-phase-shifted FBGs for high wavelength resolution, in caesium and sodium pressure-controlled heat pipes for stable temperature environment and with a tunable laser for stable wavelength measurements with a 0.1 pm resolution. Using this dataset we outline the experimental caveats that can lead to inconsistent results and confusion in measuring wavelength drifts, namely: influence of packaging; interchangeability of FBGs produced under identical conditions; birefringence of π-phase-shifted FBGs; initial transient behaviour of FBGs at constant temperature and dependence on the previous thermal history of FBGs. In addition, we observe that the wavelength stability of π-phase-shifted gratings at lower temperature is significantly improved upon by annealing at higher temperature. The lowest value of the wavelength drift we obtain is +0.014 pm·h⁻¹ at 600 °C (corresponding to +0.001 °C·h⁻¹) after annealing for 400 h at 1000 °C, the longest annealing time we have tried. The annealing time required to achieve the small drift rate is FBG-specific. |
