This thesis discusses the results obtained with an intrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) fiber, for sensing longitudinal strain, temperature and magnetic field. The FPI was constructed by splicing a capillary fiber between two pieces of standard telecommunication fiber, forming a rectangular air cavity. This cavity, when acting as a longitudinal deformation sensor has a sensitivity nine times greater than a typical Bragg grating (FBG). However, when it acts as a temperature sensor, the sensitivity is much smaller than a Bragg grating, making it useful for various applications. The magnetic field sensor was built placing the air cavity on a magnetostrictive material, so that it converted the changes brought in its length due to the application of the magnetic field in longitudinal deformation. The sensor showed a sensitivity to the magnetic field four times higher than when it is built with a Bragg grating.
