Article Synopsis
  • A new fabrication technique for Fabry-Perot sensors uses a microbubble within a polymer drop on an optical fiber tip, enabling improved sensor performance.
  • The process involves depositing polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) drops that include carbon nanoparticles (CNPs), which create a microbubble when light is launched through the fiber, thanks to the photothermal effect.
  • These microbubble sensors exhibit high temperature sensitivity of up to 790 pm/°C and a displacement sensitivity of approximately 5.4 nm/µm, outperforming traditional polymer sensor designs.
