Superlattice Microstructured Optical Fiber [PDF]

Materials, 2014
A generic three-stage stack-and-draw method is demonstrated for the fabrication of complex-microstructured optical fibers. We report the fabrication and characterization of a silica superlattice microstructured fiber with more than 800 rhomboidally arranged air-holes. A polarization-maintaining fiber with a birefringence of 8.5 × 10−4 is demonstrated.

Optofluidics in Microstructured Optical Fibers [PDF]

Micromachines, 2018
In this paper, we review the development and applications of optofluidics investigated based on the platform of microstructured optical fibers (MOFs) that have miniature air channels along the light propagating direction. The flexibility of the customizable air channels of MOFs provides enough space to implement light-matter interaction, as fluids and ...

Antiguiding in microstructured optical fibers

Optics Express, 2004
Antiguiding, as opposed to positive index-contrast guiding (or index-guiding), in microstructured air-silica optical fibers is shown to have a significant influence on the fiber's transmission property, especially when perturbations exist near the defect core.

Electrically Tunable Propagation Properties of the Liquid Crystal-Filled Terahertz Fiber

Applied Sciences, 2018
A bandgap-guiding microstructured fiber for terahertz (THz) radiation was designed by infiltrating the cladding air holes with nematic liquid crystal. Structural parameter dependence of the photonic bandgaps, polarization-dependent bandgap splitting, and
