Achieving robust single-polarization guidance in hollow-core fibers has remained a longstanding challenge, limiting their integration into precision photonic systems. Here, we report the first experimental realization of a low-loss,…

We demonstrate that porous fibers have low effective material loss over an extended frequency range, 4.5 times larger bandwidth than that can be achieved in sub-wavelength solid core fibers. We also show that these new fibers can be…

We report on a polarization maintaining large mode area photonic crystal fiber. Unlike, previous work on polarization maintaining photonic crystal fibers, birefringence is introduced using stress applying parts. This has allowed us to…

Hollow core antiresonant fibers offer new possibilities in the near infrared and visible spectral range. I show here that the great flexibility of this technology can allow the design and fabrication of hollow core optical fibers with an…

In this letter, to the best of our knowledge, a new type of hollow-core anti-resonant fiber (HC-ARF) design using hybrid silica/chalcogenide cladding is presented for single-polarization, high-birefringence, and endlessly single-mode…

We report the characterisation of anti-resonant hollow core optical fibres guiding at least 50 spatial modes in the infrared. Their propagation losses were measured to be between 0.1 and 0.2 dB/m from 1000 to 1500 nm wavelength, with bend…

We report on an anti-resonant hollow-core fiber (AR-HCF) designed for stable transmission of laser light in a broad wavelength range of 250 nm to 450 nm. We tested for wavelengths of 300 nm and 320 nm. The characterized fiber shows a low…

While optical fibers display excellent performances in the infrared, visible and ultraviolet ranges remain poorly addressed by them. Obtaining better fibers for the short-wavelength range has been restricted, in all fiber optics, by…

We report the fabrication and characterisation of a multi-core anti-resonant hollow core fibre with low inter-core coupling. The optical losses were 0.03 and 0.08 dB/m at 620 and 1000 nm respectively, while the novel structure provides new…

Gas-filled hollow core fibers allow the generation of single-cycle pulses at megahertz repetition rates. When coupled with difference frequency generation, they can be an ideal driver for the generation of carrier-envelope phase stable,…

Two highly birefringent polymer terahertz (THz) fibers were proposed in this paper, which were formed with honeycomb cladding and some elliptical air holes in the fiber core. The losses and mode birefringence for two different fibers are…

We report a high performance nodeless hollow-core anti-resonant fiber with a broadband guidance from 1050 nm to >1900 nm, a transmission attenuation of 200 dB/km, and a low bending loss of 0.25 dB/m for a 5 cm radius at wavelength of 1550…

We demonstrate experimentally and theoretically that a nanoscale hollow channel placed centrally in the solid glass core of a photonic crystal fiber strongly enhances the cylindrical birefringence (the modal index difference between…

We propose and theoretically analyse a novel hollow-core photonic crystal fibre (PCF) that is engineered so as to strongly suppress higher order modes, i.e., to provide robust LP$_{01}$ single-mode guidance in all the wavelength ranges…

Advancements in quantum communication and sensing require improved optical transmission that ensures excellent state purity and reduced losses. While free-space optical communication is often preferred, its use becomes challenging over long…

We present empirical formulae that can provide dispersion and average effective area of the fundamental mode in hollow-core antiresonant fibers. The formulae draw on the structural parameters of the fiber, and allow one to obtain the…

Careful numerical computations show that very slight geometrical imperfections of the cross-section of actual large air-fraction holey fibres (d/{\Lambda} > 0.6) may induce surprisingly high birefringence, corresponding to beat lengths as…

Hollow-core anti-resonant fibers (HC-ARFs) have earned great attention in the fiber optics community due to their remarkable light-guiding properties and broad application spectrum. Particularly nested HC-ARFs have recently reached…

Vacuum birefringence produces a differential phase between orthogonally polarized components of a weak electromagnetic probe in the presence of a strong electromagnetic field. Despite representing a hallmark prediction of quantum…

Broadband-tunable sources of circularly-polarized light are crucial in fields such as laser science, biomedicine and spectroscopy. Conventional sources rely on nonlinear wavelength conversion and polarization control using standard optical…
