Abstract: A novel surface plasmon resonance sensor based on a D-shaped, all-glass, endless single-mode photonic crystal fiber is experimentally demonstrated in this paper, which provides a new approach to realizing a high-performance photonic crystal fiber surface plasmon resonance sensor. In order to achieve the best performance, the side-polished position of the D-shaped photonic crystal fiber is theoretically and experimentally obtained. The proposed sensor can be used in wavelength and intensity interrogations simultaneously, and the experimental results of wavelength interrogation agree well with theoretical results. By combining the two interrogation methods, we present a two-feature interrogation method to improve the resolution. As a new interrogation method, the two-feature resolution is determined to be 6.53 × 10 −5 RIU, which is higher than those of the wavelength and intensity interrogations.
