This work proposes and demonstrates a bent multimode interference (MMI) sensor for refractive index and temperature measurement. The MMI structure was fabricated by successive splicing between single-mode-multimodesingle- mode (SMS) fibers. A droplet-like bent was introduced in the multimode fiber s...
