This study proposes a fiber optic temperature sensor based on an exposed-core fiber (ECF) combined with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Owing to the unique structure design of ECF and the high-performance of PDMS, a triple interference effect occurs within the device. Then, by employing the interrogation techniques including fast Fourier transform (FFT) and band-pass filtering, mixed interference spectra can be effectively separated in the spatial domain, and each of them can be individually applied for temperature measurement. The experimental results demonstrate that high-sensitivity (8.2 nm/℃) or large-range (160 ℃) temperature measurements can be realized based on the separated interference spectra. Such an excellent performance is significantly enhanced over previously reported fiber temperature sensors. More importantly, different from the traditional methods by cascading two different sensing elements, high-sensitivity and large-range temperature measurement is achieved within a single sensor structure, significantly reducing the volume and complexity of the sensing device.
