A high-sensitivity cross-axial extrinsic fiber Fabry-Perot interferometric acoustic sensor with a 45 degrees angled fiber is proposed. The thickness of pressure-sensing silver diaphragm is 95 nm. The diameter is 1.6 mm yet the flatness of the diaphragm is <30 mu m. The measured dynamic sensitivity of the diaphragm is 67.01 nm/Pa. The sensor exhibits a flat frequency response in the range of 1-6 kHz and a dynamic range of 66.43 dB. The minimal detectable pressure is similar to 107 mu Pa/Hz(1/2) at 3 kHz. The fabricated sensor is expected to be useful for highly sensitive acoustic measurement.
