Abstract
A double-filled photonic crystal fiber (PCF) was fabricated by filling liquids of different indexes into two air holes in the cladding. The core mode coupled to the local cladding modes and in the 1310 and 1550 nm wavebands, respectively. Due to the unique characteristics of the mode coupling, the resonant peaks in different resonance areas shifted to the opposite directions with the variations of the temperature or the force. The double-filled PCFs achieved in this work showed useful applications in the simultaneous measurement of both the temperature and the force.
