Optical fibers can be used as sensors to measure, , and other quantities by modifying a fiber so that the quantity to be measured modulates the,,, or transit time of light in the fiber. Sensors that vary the intensity of light are the simplest, since only a simple source and detector are required.

High-definition temperature sensing based on the natural Rayleigh backscatter in optical fiber delivers a virtually continuous line of temperature measurements with sub-millimeter spatial resolution.

A fiber optic sensor measures a physical quantity by modulating the intensity, spectrum, phase, or polarization of light traveling through the optical fiber system. The fiber optic sensor has an optical fiber connected to a light source to allow for detection in tight spaces or where a small profile is beneficial. , proximity switches or pressure sensors), it operates not by electrical signals but by. Utilizing the fiber as a sensor enables continuous measurement along its full length, sensing every centimeter of the fiber — this is referred to as.

The sensing range of a fiber optic sensor varies depending on the specific sensor and its configuration, but it can reach up to 2000 mm in transmitted light operation and up to 1200 mm in one-way operation. A fiber-optic sensor is a sensor that uses optical fiber either as the sensing element ("intrinsic sensors"), or as a means of relaying signals from a remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals ("extrinsic sensors"). This is why two modules with the same form factor can have dramatically different ranges—some limited. Radiation absorption creates electronic excited states that are trapped by localized defects for extended periods of time.
