Summary: | We have created for the first time the photonic crystal optical
fiber having the photonic band gap in the visible and NIR range of spectrum.
This fiber consists of concentric layers of air holes of variable diameter with
hollow cores. We have carried out studies on their transmission spectra
formation. We have displayed the influence of geometry and arrangement of a
fiber on its photonic band gap width and structure. It was established that
changes of geometrical structure of a fiber allows one to control effectively
the width of the photonic band gap that gives new opportunities to guide
visible and NIR light. |
