The year 2009 marks the tenth anniversary of the first report of white-light supercontinuum
generation in photonic crystal fibre. This result had a tremendous impact on the field of …

This article offers an extensive survey of results obtained using hybrid photonic-crystal fibers
(PCFs) which constitute one of the most active research fields in contemporary fiber optics …

We review the use of hollow-core photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) in the field of ultrafast gas-
based nonlinear optics, including recent experiments, numerical modeling, and a discussion …

We review the optical guidance properties of hollow-core photonic crystal fibers. We follow a
historical perspective to introduce the two major optical guidance mechanisms that were …

Biophotonics and nonlinear fiber optics have traditionally been two independent fields.
Since the discovery of fiber‐based supercontinuum generation in 1999, biophotonics …

A new, simple, technique is demonstrated to laterally access the cladding holes of solid-core
photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) or the central hole of hollow-core PCFs by blowing a hole …

Mode-locked fibre lasers are important sources of ultrashort pulses, where stable pulse
generation is achieved through a balance of periodic amplitude and phase evolutions. A …

Photonic crystal fibers and fiber lasers have been two of the most rapidly evolving areas of
optics and photonics over the past few years. Recent developments in the field of photonic …

In this paper, porous shaped photonic crystal fiber (P-PCF) has been proposed for chemical
sensing purposes where both core and cladding air holes are rearranged in porous manner …

I review the historical observation and subsequent research on optical soliton dynamics in
gas-filled hollow-core optical fibres. I include both large-core hollow capillary fibres, and …
