We report that the proposed long-period gratings (LPGs), which were fabricated in an endlessly single-mode photonic crystal fiber (ESM-PCF) via point-by-point residual stress relaxation utilizing focused CO2 laser irradiation, exhibit a high sensitivity to variations in the external refractive index, with an identified shifting of attenuation band as large as 4.4 pm for 1 × 10−5 change in the surrounding refractive index over the range from 1.42 to 1.45. Contrary to LPGs inscribed in conventional all-solid optical fiber under similar condition, the mode-coupling resonance band of the ESM-PCF-LPG moves towards longer wavelength with increasing refractive index in the surrounding medium of the fiber cladding. The resonance wavelength has a low-temperature coefficient of 2.2 pm/°C over 30–200 °C.
