Abstract
In this paper, a water-filled D-shaped photonic crystal fiber (WFDSPCF) sensor based on the birefringence response for simultaneously measuring the liquid refractive index (LRI) and liquid temperature (LT) is proposed. We undertake theoretical and simulation calculations, and the results show that the proposed WFDSPCF can achieve ultrahigh LRI and LT sensitivities when operating around the group birefringence turning point. By optimizing the structural parameters, the proposed WFDSPCF sensor can achieve LRI and LT sensitivities of -25642.86 nm/RIU and 12.8 nm/°C, respectively. In addition, in order to eliminate the sensing crosstalk between the LRI and LT, a parallel Lyot interferometer structure is also proposed. The proposed WFDSPCF sensor is expected to have potential use in biochemical sensing, measurement science, and environmental monitoring.
