“…Tajima achieved the lowest loss of 0.18 dB/km [12]. With this as the background, various transmission experiments have been conducted to confirm the validity of ESM-PCF as an ultra wideband transmission medium [13][14][15][16][17]. The unique characteristics of HFs mainly derive from the large refractive index difference between silica glass and an air hole.…”

Bending-loss insensitive fiber (BIF) has proved an essential medium for constructing the current fiber to the home (FTTH) network. By contrast, the progress that has been made on holey fiber (HF) technologies provides us with novel possibilities including non-telecom applications. In this paper, we review recent progress on hole-assisted type BIF. A simple design consideration is overviewed. We then describe some of the properties of HAF including its mechanical reliability. Finally, we introduce some applications of HAF including to high power transmission. We show that HAF with a low bending loss has the potential for use in various future optical technologies as well as in the optical communication network.

Abstract:We achieved high-speed wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) transmission in the visible to infrared region over a 1 km photonic crystal fiber (PCF). We realized ultra-wide and high-speed WDM transmission using six wavelengths in the 658 to 1550 nm wavelength range, which corresponds to a frequency bandwidth of 263 THz. We demonstrated WDM transmission of 1 Gbit/s at 658 nm and 10 Gbit/s at 780 nm and four infrared wavelengths. Our experimental results show that low loss PCF is very attractive for use in future high capacity WDM systems with an ultra wide bandwidth.
