摘要
We demonstrate a miniaturized fiber device based on fiber inner air-cavity with periodical microstructures and platinum (Pt)-doped WO3 coating for hydrogen concentration sensing. The fiber inner air-cavity is formed by use of femtosecond laser micromachining together with fusion splicing technique and the line shape microstructures are inscribed by femtosecond laser beam scanning. The Pt-doped WO3 coating on the fiber surface near the cavity leads to the device sensitivity to hydrogen concentration, and the maximum wavelength shift obtained is similar to 2.64 nm when the hydrogen concentration is increased from 0% to 4% in volume percentage. The system is highly sensitive and miniature and exhibits a low temperature cross-sensitivity.
