Study of non-linear properties of hollow core photonic crystal fiber

A highly non-linear hollow core photonic crystal fiber (PCF) having three ring-hexagonal structure is designed. The full vector finite element method with perfectly matched layer is used to investigate the non-linear properties of hollow core PCF effectively. The effective area of modal pattern is also studied for the same newly designed structure. It is found that when effective area is very small the non-linearity is very high.
