Further, in step S100, the thickness of the thin film structure 720 formed between the top of the inner cavity 710 and the end face of the second end of the support structure 700 is less than 10 microns, so that the sensor meets the response frequency requirement for ultrasound. Further, in step S100, the cavity length of the inner cavity 710 ranges from 30 micrometers to 100 micrometers, preferably 50 micrometers, which can facilitate data demodulation and measurement when measuring the spectrum.
Further, in step S400, the end face of the first end of the optical fiber 800 does not contact the upper surface of the slide 300, so that it can be ensured that the interface between the photoresist 310 and the slide 300 is a plane, the lower surface of the photoresist 310 is a relatively stable plane, and the refraction angles of the laser 510 entering the photoresist 310 from different positions of the lower surface of the photoresist 310 are consistent, which is convenient for adjusting the focus position during each printing. Further, in step S500, the laser controller 600 is used to adjust the initial printing position of the laser 500: the spot focus position of the laser 500 is located at the interface of the slide 300 and the photoresist 310 in the vertical direction, and the spot focus of the laser 500 is located within the photoresist 310 in the horizontal direction.
Further, in step S600, the printed supporting structure 700 is developed with acetone for 20S to 60S, so that the uncured photoresist 310 flows out from the flow guide groove 730, and the photoresist 310 can be prevented from being accumulated in the inner cavity 710 and affecting the performance of the sensor. Further, in step S700, a metal reflective film 900 is plated on an end surface of the second end of the supporting structure 700 by evaporation, and the laser 500 is a picosecond laser 500.
