A Novel High Sensitivity Refractive Index Sensor Based on Multi-Core Micro/Nano Fiber

Abstract A refractive index sensor based on a multi-core micro/nano fiber is proposed for low refractive index solutions. At first, the mode field distribution of the tapered multi-core fiber is analyzed with the finite element model (FEM). After that, the relationship between the refractive index s...
