一种新型的多包层光子晶体光纤的分析方法

传统有效折射率方法只能模拟具有相同空气孔大小的单包层光子晶体光纤.针对这一问题,提出了一种改进的有效折射率法,能够计算具有不同孔径的多包层光子晶体光纤的传输特性.并用此方法对三包层光子晶体光纤的基模有效折射率和色散等特性进行了数值模拟,结果与多极法模拟出的结果符合得很好.这种改进的有效折射率法拓展了传统有效折射率法的适用范围,对快速准确地分析和设计具有不同传输特性的多包层光子晶体光纤提供了理论依据. 关键词： 光子晶体光纤 多包层 有效折射率方法 色散     

Analysis of the special hollow-core photonic crystal fibre by finite element method

Two kinds of fabricated hollow-core photonic crystal fibres （HC-PCFs） arc studied using finite element method （FEM） because the structures of the fibres are special, Normalized transmission spectra and transverse intensity distribution of the modes are calculated and measured. And the dispersion characteristics of these two kinds of HC- PCFs were analysed from 400 nm to 800 nm. Simulated and measured results show that the special structure could affect the properties of HC-PCFs, By comparing the simulated values with the measured results, it can be clarified that FEM is feasible and accurate for analysing photonic crystal fibres whose structures are irregular and complex.
