摘要
The overlap of the optical mode in a holey fibre with the air holes is calculated for the first time. This is achieved using a vector modal decomposition approach. It is shown that a significant fraction of the modal power can be made to overlap with the holes, which suggests that these unusual fibres may be useful as evanescent field devices.
