Abstract :
We demonstrate a microfiber FP sensor that is manufactured directly in the micro-size fiber by the use of a 193nm-excimer-laser exposure. The spectral characteristics and the wavelength dependency on the external strain, temperature, and refractive index are investigated. The research results are useful for future applications of the devices.
