Abstract
Femtosecond (fs) laser pulses have been an important new approach to fabricate photonic devices with high performance and novel structure, because the fs laser pulses have short duration, high peak power, small thermal effect area and high micromachining precision. The fs laser micromaching method and its features are briefly introduced. The recent progress on fabrication of novel miniature fiber-optic interferometer sensors by fs laser direct-writing technology is reviewed, including miniature fiber Fabry-Perot interferometer (MFFPI) sensor and miniature fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MFMZI) sensor. Especially, the structures, characteristics and potential applications of these sensors are introduced. Finally, the characteristics of fiber-optic interferometer sensors fabricated by this technique are summarized and prospected.
