Abstract

We recently introduced a reliable fabrication process enabling the integration of dielectric and metallic nanostructures directly on the tip of optical fibers¹. It involves conventional deposition and nanopatterning techniques (typically used for planar devices fabrication) suitably adapted to directly operate on the fiber tip. By using this approach, and with a view towards possible applications, here we demonstrate the realization of different technological platforms based on the integration on the fiber facet of periodic and quasi-periodic metallo-dielectric nanostructures supporting localized surface plasmon resonances, that can be used for chemical and biological sensing as well as polarization sensitive devices.
