A simple noncontact displacement microfiber sensor using adiabatic U-shaped tapered fiber is proposed and demonstrated. The microfiber is fabricated using a systematic fiber flame brushing technique, where the fiber waist diameter is proportional to the duration of the heating cycles. The sensor is capable of measuring a wide displacement distance
