A highly birefringent negative chromatic dispersion photonic crystal fibre for long-haul transmission: design and analysis
Published in Results in Optics, 2022
In this work, we report for the first time, a simplex index guiding circular PCF (CPCF) structure operating from 1350 nm to 1650 nm wavelength, which exhibits a highly negative dispersion of −13686.5 ps/(nm-km) at the telecommunication wavelength of 1.55 µm. The proposed CPCF exhibits a birefringence of \(2.26\times10^{-2}\), with a low confinement loss of \(4.7\times10^{-5}dB/km\), which is suitable for ultra-high speed broadband dispersion compensation in long-distance transmission as well as supercontinuum generation, polarization maintenance, and sensing applications.
