Abstract
This paper reports on the fabrication and performance of a fiber bundle with seven hollow cores arranged in a hexagonal pattern. The bundle shows individual core transmission with less than 0.07% core-to-core coupling over a length of 11 cm. Each core exhibits several transmission windows in the visible to near infrared region. These low attenuation regions with large higher order mode suppression are a result of anti-resonant guidance due to the negative curvature membranes encircling the cores. The central core exhibits the widest transmission window with a minimum loss of 4 dB/m between 1250 nm and 1450 nm. The lowest loss for the central core is estimated to be 2.5 dB/m at 600 nm. Such hollow core fiber bundles may be employed in applications including communication, imaging systems, high power laser delivery, or sensing.
期刊介绍:
Papers published in the IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics fall within the broad field of science and technology of quantum electronics of a device, subsystem, or system-oriented nature. Each issue is devoted to a specific topic within this broad spectrum. Announcements of the topical areas planned for future issues, along with deadlines for receipt of manuscripts, are published in this Journal and in the IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics. Generally, the scope of manuscripts appropriate to this Journal is the same as that for the IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics. Manuscripts are published that report original theoretical and/or experimental research results that advance the scientific and technological base of quantum electronics devices, systems, or applications. The Journal is dedicated toward publishing research results that advance the state of the art or add to the understanding of the generation, amplification, modulation, detection, waveguiding, or propagation characteristics of coherent electromagnetic radiation having sub-millimeter and shorter wavelengths. In order to be suitable for publication in this Journal, the content of manuscripts concerned with subject-related research must have a potential impact on advancing the technological base of quantum electronic devices, systems, and/or applications. Potential authors of subject-related research have the responsibility of pointing out this potential impact. System-oriented manuscripts must be concerned with systems that perform a function previously unavailable or that outperform previously established systems that did not use quantum electronic components or concepts. Tutorial and review papers are by invitation only.
