This Letter reports a polymer optical fiber (POF) based large strain sensor based on the
multimode interference (MMI) theory for the application of structural health monitoring. A
section of POFs is sandwiched between two silica single mode fibers to construct a single-
mode-multimode-single-mode structure that produces a MMI spectrum. The strain sensing
mechanism of the device was investigated and experimentally verified. A large dynamic
range of 2× 10^ 4 με (2%) and a detection limit of 33 µε have been demonstrated.
