Design of an efficient Mid-IR light source using As2S3 based highly nonlinear microstructured optical fibers [PDF]
We report on the design of a highly-nonlinear specialty fiber as a mid-infrared light source at 4.3 {\mu}m. A meter length of the designed solid-core chalcogenide based index-guided microstructured optical fiber (MOF) with circular air holes has been exploited to translate wavelength via four wave mixing using a thulium-doped fiber laser as the pump ...

Tuning of the Brillouin scattering properties in microstructured optical fibers by liquid infiltration [PDF]
We demonstrate the possibility to modify the Brillouin scattering properties of a microstructured pure-silica core optical fiber, by infiltrating a liquid inside its holes. In particular, we show that the dependence of the Brillouin frequency shift (BFS)

Numerical exploration of multi-octave spanned supercontinuum generation with high coherence in single material photonic crystal fiber [PDF]
We propose a single material microstructured optical fiber with more than five octave spanning supercontinuum generation. Due to using single material, compatibility checking between core and cladding material need not required. Moreover, the material is
