Abstract

Air-silica microstructure fibers (ASMF) are attracting current interest because of their unique optical properties and ability to manipulate light. These fibers are typically all-silica optical fibers with airholes introduced in the cladding region that run along the length of the fiber.1 The distribution as well as the size of the airholes can be designed to change the optical properties in the transmission of these fibers. For example, light can be guided by a photonic bandgap,2 or propagate as an endlessly single mode,3 or experience a regime of enhanced non-linearity.4
