Hollow core photonic bandgap fibers

Photonic crystal & multicore fibers

Exail header anti resonant hollow core fibers
4 fbg

Optical signal in a hollow core anti-resonant fiber propagates in an air core surrounded by single ring of anti-resonant tube elements. Guidance is based on an anti-resonance from the thin glass membranes constituted by the non-touching tubes surrounding the hollow core. The extremely low overlap of guided power with the surrounding silica, less than 2×10 -5, added to the mode effective area, confers to this fibre design record material non-linearity.

In addition air/undoped silica provides excellent temperature immunity critical for high performance fiber sensing and metrology applications.
