Title:
PHOTONIC CRYSTAL FIBER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/003828
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A photonic crystal fiber comprises a core part (10). The core part (10) is composed of a high-refractive-index section (11) disposed at its center and a low-refractive-index section (12) having a refractive index lower than that of the high-refractive-index section (11). The core part (10) is surrounded with the three circles of voids (21) of a clad part (20). The increase of the loss in the long wavelength range is suppressed, and the leak of light due to bending is suppressed. As a result, the mode field diameter and the dispersion value in the 1300 nm band are equivalent to those of an ordinary single-mode optical fiber.
