Prototype fiber-optic sensing systems

Nusenics develops prototype fiber-optic sensing systems and development-stage technologies for harsh, remote, high-temperature, and electromagnetically challenging measurement environments.

Prototype system

Fiber-Optic Bolometer

Prototype fiber-optic bolometer system for fusion plasma radiation measurement, supporting compact, optically interrogated diagnostics in environments where EMI and sensor packaging constraints limit conventional electronic systems.

Technical highlights

  • Compact fiber-coupled sensing element
  • Demonstrated NEPD performance under laboratory testing
  • Sensor head tested for high-temperature exposure above 400 °C
  • Remote optical readout architecture

Prototype configuration and performance details can be discussed in the context of the intended measurement environment, packaging requirements, and integration pathway.
