Abstract

Embodiments are directed to a method and device for coupling an optical fiber sensing element to an apparatus under test. A channel is affixed to the apparatus under test. The channel is partially filled with a coupling material. The fiber optic sensing element is placed on the coupling material. Coupling material is placed in the channel to uniformly surround the fiber optic sensing element and tightly couple the fiber optic sensing element to the apparatus under test.
