摘要：
We demonstrate a miniaturized fiber in-line Mach-Zehnder interferometer based on an inner air cavity adjacent to the fiber core for high-temperature sensing. The inner air cavity is fabricated by femtosecond laser micromachining and the fusion splicing technique. Such a device is robust and insensitive to ambient refractive index change, and has high temperature sensitivity of similar to 43.2 pm/degrees C, up to 1000 degrees C, and low cross sensitivity to strain.
