    Abstract: A temperature sensor for measuring a temperature of a substrate in a thermal processing chamber is described. The chamber includes a reflector forming a reflecting cavity with a substrate when the substrate is positioned in the chamber. The temperature sensor includes a probe having an input end positioned to receive radiation from the reflecting cavity, and a detector optically coupled to an output end of the probe. The radiation entering the probe includes reflected radiation and non-reflected radiation. The detector measures an intensity of a first portion of the radiation entering the probe to generate a first intensity signal and measures an intensity of a second portion of the radiation entering the probe to generate a second intensity signal. The detector is configured so that a ratio of the reflected radiation to the non-reflected radiation is higher in the first portion than the second portion. The two intensity signals are used to calculate the temperature and emissivity of the substrate.

    Abstract: A delayed optical signal is generated from an inputted optical signal by cyclically transmitting the inputted optical signal between at least two ends of an optical medium and outputting the inputted optical signal from one of the ends of the optical medium after at least one transmission cycle via the optical medium. Each transmission of the inputted optical signal in a direction via the optical medium is carried out over a wavelength resource that is different from a wavelength resource used in a preceding transmission of the inputted optical signal in a direction via the optical medium. Interference among repeated transmissions of the inputted optical signal via the optical medium is therefore minimized or even avoided. Related apparatus and method are also described.

    Abstract: This system comprises at least one optical sensor (C1, C2, C3) comprising two Bragg gratings (B11, B12; B21, B22; B31, B32) written in two optical waveguides and having sensitivities adjusted so that the respective spectra of the two gratings have a relative spectral shift which depends on the parameter or parameters to be measured. The system also comprises an optical source (6) provided in order to supply light to the two optical waveguides so as to interrogate the latter, means enabling the light to pass successively through the two Bragg gratings of the same sensor, photodetectors in order to measure, on the one hand, the power level of light (R1) having passed only through one of the two optical waveguides and, on the other hand, the power level of light (Rnull1) having passed successively through the two optical waveguides, and means to process these power levels and supply the values of the parameter or parameters measured. The invention is applicable in particular to measurements of temperatures, stresses and pressures.

    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for detecting an optical signal which enables the light emitted from a curved optical fibre (40) on the long side thereof to be detected. Said arrangement comprises a device (10) for curving the optical fibre (40), a first retaining device (20, 30) for maintaining the optic fibre (40) in its curved state, and a second retaining device (60) for maintaining at least one photodetector (70). The curving device (10) and the second retaining device (60) are displaceable in relation to each other, whereby the photodetector (70) is placed directly on to a predetermined section of the curved optical fibre (40) in an operating state. As a result, the optical path between the fibre section, where the light is emitted from, and the photodetector (70) is minimal.
