Mid-infrared transmission properties of step index and large mode area ZnSe microstructured optical fibers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
ZnSe microstructured fibers have been designed and fabricated using silica capillaries and an air-silica photonic band-gap optical fiber as high-pressure microfluidic templates for semiconductor growth via chemical fluid deposition.

Solid microstructured optical fiber

open access: yesOptics Express, 2003
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.

Fabrication of functional microstructured optical fibers through a selective-filling technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
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.

Confinement losses in microstructured optical fibers [PDF]

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2001
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

Photoinduced Electron Transfer Based Ion Sensing within an Optical Fiber

open access: yesSensors, 2011
We combine suspended-core microstructured optical fibers with the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) effect to demonstrate a new type of fluorescent optical fiber-dip sensing platform for small volume ion detection.

Robust low loss splicing of hollow core photonic bandgap fiber to itself [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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 ...

Ultra-low Brillouin scattering in anti-resonant hollow-core fibers

open access: yesAPL Photonics, 2020
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.

Two-dimensional mapping of surface scatterers on an optical fiber core using selective mode launching

open access: yesAPL Photonics, 2021
The tracking of small particles is an important but challenging task for biological applications such as disease diagnostics and medical research. Current methods are limited to the use of bulky instruments such as flow cytometers and microscopes.

Advances in infrared and imaging fibres for astronomical instrumentation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Optical fibres have already played a huge part in ground based astronomical instrumentation, however, with the revolution in photonics currently taking place new fibre technologies and integrated optical devices are likely to have a profound impact on ...

Antiguiding in microstructured optical fibers

open access: yesOptics 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.
