A New Type of Terahertz Waveguides

A new type of THz waveguides, which employs a solid polyethylene rod as the core and polyethylene tubes in a periodic array of square lattice as the cladding, is proposed. Optical properties of this new THz waveguide, especially in dispersion, confinement loss and single mode property, are investigated in detail with the plane wave expansion method and the beam propagation method. Numerical results demonstrate that the new THz waveguide can reach not only low dispersion but also low confinement loss at single mode propagation. Therefore, the square lattice structure is a better candidate as THz waveguides than the triangular ones.

An Ultra-Broadband Single-Polarization Single-Mode Photonic Crystal Fibre

An ultra broadband single-polarization single-mode （SPSM） photonic crystal fibre （PCF） is proposed and analysed by using the plane-wave expansion method and the beam propagation method. Numerical results demonstrate that the SPSM wavelength region nearly at 580 nm in width from 1. 461μm to 2.041μm is obtained in this PCF. The start wavelength of the SPSM region is close to the hole pitch, and the width of the SPSM region increases with the increasing hole pitch. Effects of dopant concentration on SPSM properties are investigated. The confinement loss decreases and the width of SPSM region widens slightly with the increasing dopant concentration. These results offer a new possibility of fabricating active doped SPSM PCFs with high performance that is crucial for improving the performance of linearly polarized fibre lasers.     

The Second Order Guided Modes Based on Photonic Bandgap Effects in Air/Glass Photonic Crystal Fibers

We introduce a defect site in the periodic structure of a photonic bandgap fiber, to confine and guide the second order mode by photonic bandgap effects. Based on a high air-filling fraction photonic crystal cladding structure, a simplified model with an equivalent air cladding was proposed to explore and analyze the properties of this second order guided mode.     

Polarization-maintaining photonic crystal fibre

Photonic crystal fibres (PCFs) offer new possibilities of realizing highly birefringent fibres due to a higher intrinsic index contrast compared to conventional fibres. In this paper, we analyse theoretically the modal properties of a kind of polarization-maintaining PCF, namely the elliptical hole photonic crystal fibre (EHPCF) with a central small elliptical hole introduced in the core region. We demonstrate the possibility of achieving large birefringence with zero walk-off in the single-mode regime. This PCF also exhibits unusual dispersion properties. Several hundred nanometres of ultra broadband flattened dispersion near the wavelength 1.55μm is achieved in this EHPCF with a central small hole of d_c=0.4Λ.
