Microfiber as light source for exciting fluorescence in a polymer optical fiber Rodriguez Schwendtner, E. Navarrete Fernández, María Cruz Díaz Herrera, Natalia Esteban Martínez, Óscar González Cano, Agustín 543.426 54-126 621.391.6 Fluorescence Polymer optical fiber Microfiber Física de materiales Óptica (Física) Bioquímica (Química) 2209.19 Óptica Física Received 12 June 2015, Revised 10 September 2015, Accepted 11 September 2015, Available online 14 September 2015. We present a new technique for exciting and collecting fluorescence with all-fiber devices, consisting of two different tapered fibers, a microfiber used as illuminating source and a polymer optical fiber where a fluorophore has been deposited and where the fluorescence takes place. We depict the fabrication of the device, characterize its performance and show the feasibility of our approach, the good performance obtained and the possibility of using the flexibility of the illuminating fiber to increase this performance and the compactness of the device.
