Abstract
We demonstrate a novel paradigm for fiber sensing, based on the combination of an electrical sensor and a fiber-tip electro-optic metasurface. We transfer a semiconductor photodiode on the tip of an optical fiber and measure its current-voltage characteristics using an electro-optic photonic crystal. Any change in the electrical characteristics due to the environment can then be sensed via the fiber, greatly extending the application scope of fiber sensors. As a proof of principle, we demonstrate cryogenic temperature sensing.
