PROGRESS IN MICROSTRUCTURED OPTICAL FIBERS

open access: yesAnnual Review of Materials Research, 2006
▪ Abstract  The development of microstructured optical fibers has led to the realization of many optical properties in fiber form that were not previously attainable. This chapter reviews the background to this work and overviews both the fundamentals of and progress in fabricating and modeling these structures.

Modal cutoff in microstructured optical fibers

Optics Letters, 2002
We analyze the nature of modal cutoff in microstructured optical fibers of finite cross section. In doing so, we reconcile the striking endlessly single-mode behavior with the fact that in such fibers all propagation constants are complex. We show that the second mode undergoes a strong change of behavior that is reflected in the losses, effective area,

Resonance and scattering in microstructured optical fibers

Optics Letters, 2002
We present an investigation into the mechanism for guidance of microstructured optical fibers consisting of high-refractive-index cylinders embedded in a low-index background. A new guidance regime is identified in which the fibers' confinement losses depend strongly on wavelength and the positions of the loss minima and maxima depend on the scattering

Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibers

Journal of Lightwave Technology, 2009
The fabrication, materials, properties and applications of microstructured polymer optical fibers are reviewed. Microstructured polymer optical fibers formed the basis of extensive work on the physics of microstructured fibers, and an outline of the contribution to the wider field of microstructured fibers is also presented.

Stress-induced birefringence in microstructured optical fibers

Optics Letters, 2003
We present a numerical study of stress-induced birefringence in microstructured optical fibers (MOFs), using a finite-element method. MOFs under lateral forces and twists are considered separately. Compared with that in standard single-mode optical fibers, stress-induced linear birefringence in MOFs under a lateral force is reduced with increasing air ...

Multipole method for microstructured optical fibers I Formulation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Optical Society of America B: Optical Physics, 2002
We describe a multipole method for calculating the modes of microstructured optical fibers. The method uses a multipole expansion centered on each hole to enforce boundary conditions accurately and matches expansions with different origins by use of ...
