Abstract :
Tailoring and structuring optical fibres to nanoscale dimensions is rapidly becoming a focus area of research and is important for the eventual success of future in-fibre optical systems and novel technologies. Here, I review one aspect of our work in establishing and pursuing this field: localizing light for sensing.
