Wearable ultrasensitive and rapid human physiological monitoring based on microfiber Sagnac interferometer

High-sensitive and fast-responding flexible strain sensors are essential for the smart wearable devices that precisely and dynamically perceive the weak deformations induced by human physiological signals.Here,a flexible strain sensor via polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)-encapsulated microfiber Sagnac interferometer was designed and prepared for monitoring the human pulse signals and sound vibrations.The sensor achieved a record-breaking sensitivity(gauge factor,GF=9977)and an extremely low detection limit(0.00025%)due to the strong polarization-dependent coupling effect in the microfiber coupler and the polarization-mixing effect in the Sagnac loop.The relative intensity demodulation method also enabled a fast response time of 10 μs.The wearable pulse measurements were implemented by attaching this flexible strain sensor directly to human skin at various locations and the waveform details were accurately captured.Taking advantage of the ultra-high sensitivity and fast response performance of the prepared sensor,the real-time dynamic acquisition of the underwater weak signal,such as the hydro-acoustic waves with a wide range of 20 Hz-16.86 kHz,has been demonstrated.These initial results pave the way for a new and innovative category of underwater wearable devices with rapid detection of human physiological signals and weak environmental vibrations.
