“…The advantage of this method is that very large air fractions can be achieved by using a very thin-walled tube. Conventional hexagonal air-hole structures and some complicated superlattice structures can be fabricated using circular capillaries that are arranged in patterns to approximate triangular holes, square holes, and elliptic holes [24,25,26,27,28,29]. Despite this being the most popular method, it is labor-intensive and it is limited to the hexagonal packed periodic structure, thus it is difficult to implement for more complicated designs.…”

The study of the fabrication, material selection, and properties of microstructured polymer optical fibers (MPOFs) has long attracted great interest. This ever-increasing interest is due to their wide range of applications, mainly in sensing, including temperature, pressure, chemical, and biological species. This manuscript reviews the manufacturing of MPOFs, including the most recent single-step process involving extrusion from a modified 3D printer. MPOFs sensing applications are then discussed, with a stress on the benefit of using polymers.

Photonic liquid crystal bers with polymers constitute a new solution based on liquid crystals and microstructured polymer optical bers opening up new areas in innovative sensing and photonic devices applications. Compared with their silica-based microstructured bers, it is easier to fabricate exotic microstructured polymer optical bers by extrusion or drilling at low temperature; their nonlinearity is potentially stronger, the range of available polymers that may be drawn is more diverse and the biocompatibility of polymers is often better. Liquid crystals due to their attractive properties i.e., the high birefringence, high electro-optic and thermo-optic eects are a very good candidate for microstructured polymer optical ber inltration to obtain tunable all-in-ber innovative photonic devices. The paper will discuss basic properties and possible applications of the polymer photonic liquid crystal bers that will arise from their high optical tunability with external and internal factors. Current research eort is directed towards two main solutions: photonic crystal bers and microstructured polymer optical ber-based structures, both inltrated with liquid crystals of tailored optical properties.
