Reham Ali Abdul Mohsin, Soudad S. Al Bassam

Abstract: Recently, Micro- Nano optical fibers have big interest in different fields especially sensing one due to their tremendous features. In this work chemical etching using hydrofluoric acid method have been used to reduce the diameter of single mode fibers and multimode fibers to several microns diameter 21.1 m and 57.5 m respectively.

Keywords: Optical fiber, optical fiber sensors, optical fiber tapered, Chemical etching
