The dispersion characteristics of As2S3 solid-core photonic crystal fibers were investigated with the change of structural parameters including filling factor ( ) and lattice constant ( ). Photonic crystal fiber obtained diverse dispersion including all-normal and anomalous dispersion with two zero-wavelengths dispersion at all values of lattice constant investigated. The dispersion value increases when the lattice constant increases and the filling factor decreases. Photonic crystal fiber has a flat dispersion curve and closeness to the zero-dispersion curve in the long-wavelength range are advantages of this design. Based on the analysis of numerical simulation results, we have proposed two structures with optimal dispersion for the application of supercontinuum generation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
