To form an optical element (20), in particular an interferometric sensor, an optical fiber (1) is placed tangent to a cylindrical supporting element (2); a straight portion (1a) of the optical fiber and the supporting element are surface fused; and a cavity (26) is formed in the optical fiber (1), the cavity being defined by facing surfaces (27, 28) of the straight portion (1a) substantially perpendicular to the axis of the straight portion (1a). The optical fiber (1) and supporting element (2) may also be subjected to traction during surface fusion, to form a small-cross-section portion close to the cavity, and which, when light is conducted by the optical element, provides for reducing the amount of light dispersed in the cavity.

Pour former un élément optique (20), plus particulièrement un capteur interferométrique, on place une fibre optique (1) de manière tangentielle par rapport à un élément de support cylindrique (2), on réunit par fusion les surfaces d'une partie rectiligne (1a) de la fibre optique et de l'élément de support, et on forme dans la fibre optique (1) une cavité (26) définie par les surfaces opposées (27, 28) de la partie rectiligne (1a) sensiblement perpendiculaire à l'axe de la partie rectiligne (1a). La fibre optique (1) et l'élément de support (2) peuvent également être soumis à une traction pendant la réunion par fusion des surfaces pour former une partie à section transversale de petite dimension à proximité de la cavité, et qui, lorsque la lumière est conduite par l'élément optique, permet de réduire la quantité de lumière dispersée dans la cavité.
