“…Optical micro and nanofibres (MNFs) have extensive applications in nonlinearity generation [1,2,3,4,5], near-field optics [6,7,8,9], quantum optics [10,11,12,13], and miniaturized sensing [14,15,16,17,18,19]. Although MNFs have fostered the development of various disciplines, their own study was barely considered until the convenient fabrication of low-loss MNFs was made possible.…”
