A micro-optical fibre sensor
Optical fibres with micrometric or sub-micrometric diameters can have a considerable fraction of the fundamental mode propagating outside the fibre physical boundary. When the wavelength of the light in a microfibre is comparable/smaller than its diameter, high-Q resonators can be promptly achieved with simple coils. This device has a resonating wavelength strongly dependent on the surrounding medium, hence it can be used as an extremely sensitive refractive index sensor.

Abstract

Optical fibres with micrometric or sub-micrometric diameters can have a considerable fraction of the fundamental mode propagating outside the fibre physical boundary. When the wavelength of the light in a microfibre is comparable/smaller than its diameter, high-Q resonators can be promptly achieved with simple coils. This device has a resonating wavelength strongly dependent on the surrounding medium, hence it can be used as an extremely sensitive refractive index sensor.
