Abstract

We demonstrate a sub-millimetre all-solid multicore fibre probe for Raman Spectroscopy. By utilising a multicore fibre design and a differential dopant approach, we were able to suppress inter-core crosstalk and therefore reduce the generation of Silica Raman background. The monolithic all-fibre probe achieves 98 percent collection efficiency relative to direct coupling and enables fluorescence-free Raman spectra reconstruction of highly fluorescence samples.
