ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic sensor apparatus includes an optical fiber, a fiber bend holder, and a sensing element. The optical fiber can be configured to form a transmit fiber path and a return fiber path by adhering the fiber bend holder to the center of the optical fiber in order to form a straight section between the transmit fiber path and the return fiber path. The optic fiber can be physically bent and adhered to tabs associated with the fiber bend holder. A cut can be precisely made in the center of the adhered straight section and the sensing element can be inserted into an optical path associated with the optical fiber.
