The fiber, with a sensing length of 1. 55 mm, has been processed with a femtosecond laser, so that it incorporates four holes in its structure. In this way, the liquid enters the air core, and it is possible to perform the sensing through the Fabry–Perot cavities that. itive U-shaped liquid level sensor based on single- e sensing region, cladding modes are further excited due to fiber bending and create more mode interfer-ence. The sensor consists of a fiber splitter with the configuration of one input to multiple fiber outputs, i. 1×4, 1×8 and 1×12 arrangements that act as a. In this work, a novel optical fiber sensor capable of measuring both the liquid level and its refractive index is designed, manufactured and demonstrated through simulations and experimentally.
