The fabrication, characterization and encapsulation of a fiber optic temperature sensor based upon a micro Fabry–Perot (F-P) cavity is presented. The F-P cavity is formed between a reflective in-fiber metallic splice and the air-fiber boundary at the end of the sensor. A change in temperature modifies the optical cavity length, and this is observed as a change in the reflected interference spectrum...
