Miniaturized fiber-optic magnetic field sensors have attracted considerable interest owing to their superiorities in anti-electromagnetic interference and compactness. However, the intrinsic thermodynamic properties of the material make temperature cross-sensitivity a challenging problem in terms of sensing accuracy and reliability. In this study, an ultracompact multicore fiber (MCF) tip sensor was designed to discriminatively measure the magnetic field and temperature, which was subsequently evaluated experimentally. The novel 3D printed sensing component consists of a bowl-shaped microcantilever and a polymer microfluid-infiltrated microcavity on the end-facet of an MCF, acting as two miniaturized Fabry-Perot interferometers. The magnetic sensitivity of the microcantilever was implemented by incorporating an iron micro ball into the microcantilever, and the microfluid-infiltrated microcavity enhanced the capability of highly sensitive temperature sensing. Using this tiny fiber-facet device in the two channels of an MCF allows discriminative measurements of the magnetic field and temperature by determining the sensitivity coefficient matrix of two parameters. The device exhibited a high magnetic field intensity sensitivity, approximately 1805.6 pm/mT with a fast response time of ~ 213 ms and a high temperature sensitivity of 160.3 pm/℃. Moreover, the sensor had a low condition number of 11.28, indicating high reliability in two-parameter measurements. The proposed 3D printed MCF-tip probes, which detect multiple signals through multiple channels within a single fiber, can provide an ultracompact, sensitive, and reliable scheme for discriminative measurements. The bowl-shaped microcantilever also provides a useful platform for incorporating microstructures with functional materials, extending multi-parameter sensing scenarios and promoting the application of MCFs. |
