Silica hollow core microstructured fibres for mid-infrared surgical applications [PDF]
In this paper two silica hollow core microstructured fibres (Negative Curvature Fibre and Photonic Bandgap Fibre) are presented with attenuations of 0.06 dB/m and 1.1 dB/m at 2.94 μm wavelengths, respectively.

Microstructured optical fiber devices
We present several applications of microstructured optical fibers and study their modal characteristics by using Bragg gratings inscribed into photosensitive core regions designed into the air-silica microstructure. The unique characteristics revealed in these studies enable a number of functionalities including tunability and enhanced nonlinearity ...

Robust low loss splicing of hollow core photonic bandgap fiber to itself [PDF]
Robust, low loss (0.16dB) splicing of hollow core photonic band gap fiber to itself is presented. Modal content is negligibly affected by splicing, enabling penalty-free 40Gbit/s data transmission over > 200m of spliced ...

Fabrication of functional microstructured optical fibers through a selective-filling technique [PDF]
We develop a method for the fabrication of functional microstructured optical fibers (MOFs) by selectively filling the air holes with liquid phase materials, where we utilize the dependence of filling speed on the size of the air holes.

Solid microstructured optical fiber
An all-solid microstructured fiber based on two thermallymatched silicate glasses with a high index contrast has been fabricated for the first time. The microstructured cladding was shown to be essentially unchanged during fiber drawing. Fiber attenuation was measured as 5dB/m at 1.55m by the cutback method.

We numerically studied the focusing properties of a special type of graded index photonic crystal media, i.e., the so-called photonic crystal Mikaelian lenses (PCMLs). We considered PCMLs with a varying air hole diameter and with a varying air hole pitch

Index matching between passive and active tellurite glasses for use in microstructured fiber lasers: Erbium doped lanthanum-tellurite glass [PDF]
Active and passive variants of La-containing tellurite glasses have been developed with matched refractive indices. The consequences of adding lanthanum to the glass was studied through measurements of the crystallization stability, glass viscosity and ...

Ultra-low Brillouin scattering in anti-resonant hollow-core fibers
Sensitive optical experiments in fiber, including for applications in communications and quantum information, are limited by the noise generated when light scatters from thermally excited guided-acoustic phonons.
