“…The fiber constitutes the backbone conduit for light guiding, and effective light-fluid interaction is achieved when the microfluidic channel intersects the optical pathway. In recent years, devices such as microchannels, microslots, and FP interferometers have been fabricated in single-mode fibers (SMFs) by the use of femtosecond laser micromachining, [8][9][10][11][12] which can be effectively utilized for RI sensing with low temperature sensitivity and large dynamic range. However, a relative low fringe visibility of the interference pattern is achieved when using this technique for making FP fiber sensors.…”
