A novel refractive index (RI) sensor based on a fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer was realized by concatenating two single-mode fiber tapers separated by a middle section. The proposed device had a minimum insertion loss of 3 dB and maximum interferometric extinction ratio over 20 dB. The resolution (0.171 nm) of the two-taper sensor to its surrounding RI change (0.01) was found to be comparable to that (0.252 nm) of similar structures made from an identical long-period gratings pair, and its ease of fabrication makes it a low-cost alternative to existing sensing applications.
