Microfiber Optical Sensors: A Review
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 interesting waveguiding properties, including widely tailorable optical confinement, evanescent fields and waveguide dispersion.

Reactive Magnetospinning of Nano‐ and Microfibers [PDF]
AbstractReactive spinning of nano‐ and microfibers that involves very fast chemical reactions and ion exchange is a challenge for the common methods for nanofiber formation. Herein, we introduce the reactive magnetospinning method. This procedure is based on the magnetic‐field‐directed collision of ferrofluid droplets with liquid droplets that contain ...

A microfiber coupler tip thermometer [PDF]
A compact thermometer based on a broadband microfiber coupler tip is demonstrated. This sensor can measure a broad temperature interval ranging from room temperature to 1283 °C with sub-200 µm spatial resolution. An average sensitivity of 11.96 pm/°C was achieved for a coupler tip with ~2.5 µm diameter.

Impact of a water microjet on a microfiber
The transverse impact of an impulsive water microjet on single cylindrical fibers is investigated. The stages of ejection, breakup, and collision of the microjet were recorded using high-speed photography methods. Significant slowing down of the microjet by the fiber and splitting into two parts were detected.

Polypropylene Microfibers with a Filler in the Nanostate [PDF]
The physico-chemical regularities of polypropylene microfibers obtained via processing polypropylene/copolyamide (PP/CPA) mixture melts filled with nanosilicas have been investigated. It has been shown that the chemical nature of silica functional groups affects the viscosity of PP/CPA melts.

Polarization-maintaining optical microfiber [PDF]
We have successfully demonstrated a polarization-maintaining (PM) fused silica microfiber by adiabatically tapering a conventional PM fiber. Compared to standard single-mode microfibers, the proposed PM microfibers exhibit robust polarization, preserving characteristics under the presence of external perturbations, such as bending.

Additive manufacturing with polypropylene microfibers [PDF]
The additive manufacturing of small diameter polypropylene microfibers is described, achieved using a technique termed melt electrospinning writing. Sequential fiber layering, which is important for accurate three-dimensional fabrication, was achieved with the smallest fiber diameter of 16.4±0.2μm obtained.

PLZT Microfibers Technology Optimization
Abstract Electrocaloric (EC) structures for a new generation of cooling or heating elements utilize the temperature dependence of spontaneous polarization in some ferroelectric materials to convert waste heat into electricity and vice versa. A (Pb0.93La0.07) (Zr0.65Ti0.35)O3 material, have the largest recorded pyroelectric coefficient.

Microfiber interferometric acoustic transducers
Acoustic and ultrasonic transducers are key components in biomedical information technology, which has been applied in medical diagnosis, photoacoustic endoscopy and photoacoustic imaging. In this paper, an acoustic transducer based on Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) fabricated in a microscaled optical fiber is demonstrated.
