We proposed a high-sensitivity optical fiber sensor based on a dual-resonance helical long-period fiber grating (HLPG). The grating is fabricated in a single-mode fiber (SMF) by using an improved arc-discharge heating system. The transmission spectra and the dual-resonance characteristics of the SMF-HLPG near the dispersion turning point (DTP) were studied through simulation. In the experiment, a four-electrode arc-discharge heating system was developed. The system can keep the surface temperature of optical fiber relatively constant during the grating preparation process, which shows an advantage in preparing high-quality triple- and single-helix HLPGs. In particular, benefiting from this manufacturing system, the SMF-HLPG operating near the DTP was successfully prepared directly by arc-discharge technology, without secondary processing of the grating. As a typical application example of the proposed SMF-HLPG, physical parameters such as temperature, torsion, curvature and strain can be measured with high sensitivity by monitoring the variation of the wavelength separation in the transmission spectrum. Therefore, the proposed sensor and its fabrication technology have potential application prospects in practical sensing measurement.
