Liquid-Crystal-Filled Side-hole Fiber for High-Sensitivity Temperature and Electric Field Measurement

We propose a highly sensitive sensor based on a nematic liquid-crystal-filled side-hole fiber. The liquid crystal is precisely filled into an air hole of the optical fiber using a method of manually gluing in the fusion splicer. Due to the coupling between the liquid crystal waveguide and the fiber...
