摘要：

Optical fiber sources have experienced a massive growth over the past ten years principally due to the compactness, robustness and good spatial quality of such systems. Fiber sources now cover a large spectrum from visible to near infrared helped on this point by the development of microstructured fibers (MOFs). A particular class of MOFs also called hollow-core photonic crystal fibers (HC-PCFs) offers to get rid of silica's absorption thanks to band gap guidance and therefore to extend transmission range of silica fibers. We propose here two all-fiber architectures based on HC-PCFs in view to generate mid infrared wavelengths by amplification of spontaneous Raman scattering (SRS) in gaseous medium. We report on design, fabrication and characterization of two kinds of HC-PCF matching the architecture needs.
