Polymer optical waveguides with reduced in-plane bend loss for electro-optical pcbsIn–plane bend loss represents the greatest commercial inhibitor to deploying multimode optical waveguides on densely populated electro-optical printed circuit boards (OPCB) as the minimum...
Bending losses in large mode area holey fibresThe aims of the study presented here are to develop methods of accurately predicting bend loss in arbitrary index fibres, to use these techniques to explore the potential offered by holey fibres in the large-mode-area, single-mode regime, and to place their performance...
Tunable bandpass filter with solid-core photonic bandgap fiber and bragg fiberAbstract—A tunable spectral bandpass filter which includes two fibers with different bend loss edges—a solid-core photonic bandgap fiber with short wavelength bend loss edge and a Bragg fiber with long wavelength bend loss edge—is presented in this letter....
Mode coupling effects in ring-core fibers for space-division multiplexing systems... For this purpose, the coupled mode/power theory with identified spatial power spectrum of random perturbations of fiber axis is used to estimate the bend loss/crosstalk of the RCF due to microbending....
