abstract = {In this work, methane detection is performed on the 2º3 and º2 + 2º3 absorption
bands in the Near-Infrared (NIR) wavelength region using an all-fibre optical sensor. Hollowcore
photonic bandgap fibres (HC-PBFs) are employed as gas cells due to their compactness,
good integrability in optical systems and feasibility of long interaction lengths with gases.
Sensing in the 2º3 band of methane is demonstrated to achieve a detection limit one order
of magnitude better than that of the º2 + 2º3 band. Finally, the filling time of a HC-PBF is
demonstrated to be dependent on the fibre length and geometry.},
