ABSTRACT:
A spectral filtering optical sensor comprises a stationary zone plate and stationary co-terminous ends of input and output fibres with the interposition in the optical path between the zone plate and the optical fibre ends of a variable optical focussing arrangement the focussing characteristics of which change with changes in magnitude of the particular parameter being sensed and thereby vary the effective optical path length between the zone plate and the optical fibre ends and the wavelength of light impinging on the end of the output fibre.
