This study proposes and experimentally demonstrates a compact fiber-optic ultrasonic sensor based on a tapered multi-core fiber (TMCF). Comparative analysis and measurements are performed between tapered four-core fibers and tapered seven-core fibers, revealing that multiple modes can be easily excited and coupled in the tapered region of the TMCF, resulting in highly sensitive inter-mode interference. By utilizing the evanescent field interaction between the surrounding water and transmitting light, the transmission spectrum of the TMCF is modulated periodically due to the change in water's refractive index caused by ultrasonic waves. The sensor, packaged on a polyurethane rod as an ultrasonic probe, successfully obtains high signal-to-noise voltage signals and clearly images the profile of a trapezoidal physical model using scanning detection.

Comparative analysis and measurements are performed between the tapered fourcore fibers and tapered seven-core fibers. Multiple modes are easily excited and coupled in the tapered region of the TMCF, which leads to highly sensitive inter-mode interference. According to the evanescent field interaction between the surrounding water and the transmitting light, the transmission spectrum of the TMCF is modulated periodically owing to the change in the refractive index of the water by ultrasonic waves. The sensor is packaged on a polyurethane rod as an ultrasonic probe. High signal-to-noise voltage signals are obtained, and the profile of a trapezoidal physical model is clearly imaged using scanning detection.
