Graphene oxide diaphragm for acoustic fiber sensing

A fiber sensor composed by a graphene oxide membrane at the tip of a capillary is presented. The graphene oxide membrane acts as a low-reflectivity mirror, distanced from a single mode fiber forming a low finesse Fabry-Perot interferometer. The response of the sensor to acoustic pressure with varying frequency is studied in the range between 5 and 45 kHz, attaining a minimum signal to noise ratio of 14 dB.
