Abstract :
This paper demonstrates a microfiber incorporated with an air-gap microcavity fiber Fabry-Pérot-interferometer to achieve an ultrasensitive sensing characteristic. An extremely high sensitivity is achieved when the hybrid configuration operated under a fundamental-mode cutoff (FMC) condition.
