We demonstrate a novel fiber Bragg grating (FBG) temperature sensor based on lead sulfide (PbS)-doped silica optical fiber, prepared by atomic layer deposition (ALD) doping technique. The FBGs are fabricated using the phase mask method, without hydrogen loading. The temperature sensitivity of the FBG-PbS is found to be similar to 19 pm/degrees C within 20-150 degrees C, showing great linearity and repeatability. It is increased by approximately 60% compared to the temperature sensitivity of FBG in standard single mode fiber (SMF). Furthermore, the temperature characteristics of PbSdoped silica optical fiber are investigated. The thermal expansion coefficient and thermal-optic coefficient of PbS-doped silica fiber are 6.3 x 10(-7) and 1.23 x 10(-5)/degrees C, respectively. Moreover, the thermal-optic coefficient value of the PbS-doped silica optical fiber is nearly one order of magnitude higher than that of SMF. Therefore, the FBG based on PbS-doped silica optical fiber appears to be very attractive for the temperature sensing fields.
