A novel method for fabricating long period grating in grapefruit photonic crystal fiber (GPCF) is proposed and demonstrated. An 800nm femtosecond laser is adopted to scan a section of GPCF periodically point-by-point, resulting in effective refractive index periodic demodulation. High resonance of ~17dB is obtained with a grating length of 30 mm. The temperature sensitivity of resonant wavelength 0.03 nm/°C is obtained from 20°C to 120 °C. In addition, the relationship between resonant wavelength and surrounding refractive index (SRI), when LPFG immersed in refractive index of solution of different index, is also researched.

This paper proposes a highly sensitive surface plasmon resonance (SPR) refractive index sensor based on the photonic crystal fiber (PCF). The optical properties of the PCF are investigated by modulating the refractive index of a liquid analyte. The finite element method (FEM) is used to calculate and analyze the PCF structure. After optimization, the fiber can achieve high linearity of 0.9931 and an average refractive index sensitivity of up to 14,771.4 nm/RIU over a refractive index range from 1.47 to 1.52, with the maximum wavelength sensitivity of 18,000.5 nm/RIU. The proposed structure can be used in various sensing applications, including biological monitoring, environmental monitoring, and chemical production with the modification and analysis of the proposed structure.
