Photonic Crystal Fiber Mach-Zehnder Interferometer for Refractive Index Sensing

Photonic Crystal Fiber Mach-Zehnder Interferometer for Refractive Index Sensing

We report on a refractive index sensor using a photonic crystal fiber (PCF) interferometer which was realized by fusion splicing a short section of PCF (Blaze Photonics, LMA-10) between two standard single mode fibers. The fully collapsed air holes of the PCF at the spice regions allow the coupling...
