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

Intrinsically narrowband pair photon generation in microstructured fibres [PDF]
, 2011 In this paper we study the tailoring of photon spectral properties generated by four-wave mixing in a birefringent photonic crystal fibre (PCF). The aim is to produce intrinsically narrow-band photons and hence to achieve high non-classical interference ...
