A high-temperature sapphire strain gage based on the optical fiber extrinsic Fizeau interferometric sensor (EFI) was used to measure strain on a compressive loaded silicon carbide rod at a temperature of 1100{degrees}C. Experimental strain sensitivities on the order of 1 {mu}{epsilon} were obtained.
