A fiber optic sensor capable of measuring refractive index (RI), strain, and temperature
simultaneously is proposed and demonstrated. The sensor is formed by the integration of a …

It is now commonly accepted that, in large pitch hollow-core 'kagomé'lattice fibers, the loss
spectrum is related to resonances of the thin silica webs in the photonic crystal cladding …

The low coherence of the supercontinuum (SC) generated using picosecond pump pulses is
a major drawback of such SC generation scheme. In this paper, we propose to first self …

We proposed and experimentally demonstrated a technique for the suppression of
unwanted modes in double-clad fibers with a high core-to-clad diameter ratio by introducing …

We present what is believed to be the first experimental demonstration of a new mechanism
of mode coupling in multicore fibers (MCFs) based on their indirect interaction inside the …

We demonstrate a Yb-doped hybrid fiber with anomalous dispersion in the 1 μm spectral
range, where asymptotically single-mode behavior is achieved with a differential mode …

We investigate (both theoretically and experimentally) a method for fundamental mode
spectral filtering in single-mode optical fibers using the resonant mode coupling effect. We …

We present a microstructure-based dual-core dispersion-compensating fiber (DCF) design
for dispersion compensation in long-haul optical communication links. The design has been …

M-type fibers have the exceptional property that the higher-order LP0n modes are core-
confined and easily excited, while the LP01 and other modes are confined to a high-index …

A new type of Anti Resonant Reflecting Optical Waveguide (ARROW) fiber with a low
refractive index contrast is reported. This waveguide is similar to a Bragg fiber for which the …
