Abstract

A fiber optic accelerometer using a Mach-Zender interferometer is described. The accelerometer is constructed using a central fixed flexural disk. Disk surface strains, caused by acceleration, are detected by fiber coils comprising the legs of an interferometer. Two flexural disk designs are analyzed and compared.
