High-sensitivity fiber-tip photothermal gas sensor based on a 3d µ-printed fabry-pérot microcavity

Date:

We report a miniature fiber-optic photothermal gas sensor based on a Fabry-Pérot microcavity directly 3D µ-printed on the end-face of a standard single-mode optical fiber. A detection limit of 0.4 parts-per-million for acetylene is demonstrated.
