- 16 - ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A fiber-optic sensor for measuring a physical quan- tity or sensing changes therein, consists of a transmitter and receiver unit respectively arranged to transmit and receive optical energy and an optical fiber for trans- mission of said optical energy to and from a sensor located at the measurement point. The sensor has at least one solid body, which is arranged to emit photo- luminescent optical energy in at least one wavelength range, and a volume limited by at least two substantially plane-parallel surfaces, the separation of which is smaller than half the coherence length for either the transmitted or luminescent optical energy, whereby an interference pattern will differently affect the trans- mission of optical energy to the receiver unit as the optical length between said parallel surfaces changes with changes in the physical quantity being sensed.
