Refractive index and temperature-sensing characteristics of a cladding-etched thin core fiber interferometer
A high refractive index (RI) sensor based on an in-line Mach–Zehnder mode interferometer (MZI) is proposed. The sensor was realized by splicing a 2-cm length of cladding-etched thin core fiber (TCF) between two single mode fibers (SMFs). The TCF-structured MZI exhibited good fringe visibility as hig...
