Herein, recent progress in fiber optofluidic lasers and their applications in biochemical
detection are reviewed. The unique properties of optical fibers are introduced for the …

With diameter close to or below the wavelength of guided light and high index contrast
between the fiber core and the surrounding, an optical microfiber shows a variety of …

Refractive index (RI) sensors based on optical resonance techniques are receiving a high
degree of attention because of the need to develop simple, low-cost, high-throughput …

Microwires and nanowires have been manufactured by using a wide range of bottom-up
techniques such as chemical or physical vapor deposition and top-down processes such as …

Micro-/nanofibers (MNFs) are optical fibers with diameters close to or below the wavelength
of the guided light. These tiny fibers can offer engineerable waveguiding properties …

Micro/nanofibres (MNFs) are optical fibres with diameters close to or below the vacuum
wavelength of visible or near-infrared light. Due to its wavelength-or sub-wavelength scale …

As a combination of fiber optics and nanotechnology, optical microfibers and nanofibers
(MNFs) have been emerging as a novel platform for exploring fiber-optic technology on the …

We experimentally demonstrate efficient coupling of atomic fluorescence to the guided mode
of a subwavelength-diameter silica fiber, an optical nanofiber. We show that fluorescence of …

We review the method of producing adiabatic optical micro-and nanofibers using a
hydrogen/oxygen flame brushing technique. The flame is scanned along the fiber, which is …
