Confinement losses in microstructured optical fibers [PDF]
We describe a multipole formulation that can be used for high-accuracy calculations of the full complex propagation constant of a microstructured optical fiber with a finite number of holes. We show how the imaginary part of the microstructure, which describes confinement losses not associated with absorption, varies with hole size, the number of rings

Optical Properties of Microstructured Fibre Tuned by Filling with Magnetic Liquids
Alternative for adjust optical fiber light-guiding properties by bulk glass doping is provided by microstructured optical fibers, which allows access directly to the light guiding core via their microstructure.

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 ...

Highly sensitive salinity sensor based on Mach-Zehnder interferometer with double-C fiber
This paper proposes a highly sensitive, compact, and low-cost optical fiber salinity sensor based on the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The sensor is constructed using a single mode fiber (SMF) - no-core fiber - double-C fiber (DCF) - NCF-SMF structure ...

Antiguiding in microstructured optical fibers
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.

Symmetry and degeneracy in microstructured optical fibers [PDF]
The symmetry of an optical waveguide determines its modal degeneracies. A fiber with rotational symmetry of order higher than 2 has modes that either are nondegenerate and support the complete fiber symmetry or are twofold degenerate pairs of lower symmetry.
