PCFs show interesting advantages over conventionalcapillaries for this application, including larger surface-to-volume ratio and potential for higher resolution withcomparable sensitivity. Our results illustrate some of these advantages, and we point out the need for stringent tolerancesin the fabrication of specific PCFs for this application.
