In the research field of hollow-core optical fiber (HCF), one type of fiber geometry with a
leaky mode nature has unexpectedly taken center stage over the last couple of years: the so …

Over the past few years, progress in hollow-core optical fiber technology has reduced the
attenuation of these fibers to levels comparable to those of all-solid silica-core single-mode …

Countering the optical network 'capacity crunch'calls for a radical development in optical
fibres that could simultaneously minimize nonlinearity penalties, chromatic dispersion and …

Modal decomposition of light has been known for a long time, applied mostly to pattern
recognition. With the commercialization of liquid-crystal devices, digital holography as an …

Photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) are a special class of optical fibers with a periodic
arrangement of microstructured holes located in the fiber's cladding. Light confinement is …

Hollow Core NANFs with Five Nested Tubes and Record Low Loss at 850, 1060, 1300 and
1625nm Page 1 Hollow Core NANFs with Five Nested Tubes and Record Low Loss at 850 …

We propose a novel hollow core fiber design based on nested and non-touching
antiresonant tube elements arranged around a central core. We demonstrate through …

We describe the history, guiding mechanism, recent advances, applications, and future
prospects for hollow-core negative curvature fibers. We first review one-dimensional slab …
