Abstract
The evolution of optical interferometers into extreme resolution large dynamic range sensors implemented in a guided wave form is discussed. The design and performance of fibre optic interferometric sensors optimised for specific periodic and quasi-steady-state measurands such as rotation, magnetic field, temperature, etc., are described.Keywords
