Abstract
An experimental investigation of three different types of highly biref ringent fiber sensor element configured as a force and a displacement sensor is described. From the coupling of power between the two eigenm odes, the magnitude of the force and the position of the coupling poin t can then be determined using 'white-light interferometric' technique s.
