We describe the fundamentals of two new types of fiber, photonic crystal fiber (PCF) and photonic bandgap fiber (PBF). PCF is fabricated by forming small air holes in the cladding of the fiber rather than doping the fiber core with high-index materials.

Photonic crystal waveguides in chalcogenide glasses [PDF]
The growing speed and bandwidth requirements of telecommunication systems demand all-optical on-chip solutions. Microphotonic devices can deliver low power nonlinear signal processing solutions. This thesis looks at the slow light photonic crystals in

Thin-film photonic crystal LEDs with enhanced directionality [PDF]
The use of photonic crystals for light extraction from light-emitting diodes (LEDs) gives the possibility to shape the farfield emission pattern. This is of particular interest for étendue-limited LED applications that require a more directional ...

High-power supercontinuum generation with picosecond pulses [PDF]
We investigate both theoretically and experimentally the properties of supercontinuum generation in the nearinfrared and visible regimes using high-power picosecond pulses propagating in a photonic crystal optical fiber. We discuss the effect of the pump

Micro-Displacement Sensor Based on a Hollow-Core Photonic Crystal Fiber
A sensing head based on a hollow-core photonic crystal fiber for in-reflection measurement of micro-displacements is presented. The sensing structure takes advantage of the multimodal behavior of a short segment of hollow-core photonic crystal fiber in ...

Photonic Crystal Fibers for Sensing Applications
Photonic crystal fibers are a kind of fiber optics that present a diversity of new and improved features beyond what conventional optical fibers can offer. Due to their unique geometric structure, photonic crystal fibers present special properties and capabilities that lead to an outstanding potential for sensing applications.

D-Shaped Photonic Crystal Fiber Toxic Metal Ions (Arsenic) Sensor Based on Surface Plasmon Resonance
In this work, a Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF) sensor based on the Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) technology was proposed. A thin layer of gold (Au) was deposited on a D-shaped Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF), which was coated with plasmonic chemically ...

A new slant on photonic crystal fibers
We present the novel use of microstructured optical fibers not as 'light-pipes', but in a transverse geometry to manipulate the light propagating across the fiber. Fundamental and higher-order bandgaps were observed experimentally in this geometry using a number of techniques.
