Highly Sensitive Refractive Index Optical Fiber Sensors Fabricated by a Femtosecond Laser

Highly sensitive and robust refractive index (RI) fiber sensors are proposed, which are based on concatenating two micro air-cavities. The micro air-cavities embedded in the fiber along the core axis are fabricated by combining the techniques of femtosecond laser micromachining and arc fusion splici...
