摘要
A microstructured optical fiber with a single design parameter is proposed and demonstrated. In such a structure three thin, long glass webs join in the fiber center, forming its core. By changing the web thickness it is possible to tune the zero-dispersion wavelength from similar to 0.7 to > 2.0 mu m while keeping a tiny core area and single-mode guidance. Supercontinuum. generation is shown in a silica fiber with a web thickness of 850 run. The small core area and the massive hole area also make the structure very attractive for the sensing and study of fluids. (c) 2007 Optical Society of America.
