This paper proposes a novel multicomponent gas-sensing optical fiber probe system. It utilizes a precisely engineered Platinum-coated capillary fabricated via Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) technology as the core for enhanced Raman spectroscopy, marking the first application of ALD in creating such a structure for gas Raman sensing. The noble metal capillary gas Raman probe demonstrates a low detection limit of 55 ppm for CO with a 30 s exposure time and good repeatability in multicomponent gas sensing.

However, due to its lower numerical aperture, when utilizing the Fiber-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (FERS) principle for gas detection, the efficiency of AR-HCF in collecting Raman signals per unit length is significantly lower than that of hollow-core photonic crystal fiber. Nonetheless, AR-HCF effectively suppresses higher-order modes and offers bandwidth in hundreds of nanometers.
