Current Status of Hollow-Core Anti-Resonant Optical Fiber
This review presents an overview of recent progress in anti-resonant hollow-core fibers for sensing applications. Hubei Key Laboratory of Intelligent Wireless Communications, Hubei Engineering Research Center of Intelligent Internet of Things Technology, College of Electronics and Information Engineering, South-Central University for Nationalities, Wuhan 430074, China Key Laboratory of Optoelectronic. 2 dB/m from 1000 to 1500 nm wavelength, with bend losses of less than 3 dB/turn for bend radii of 7. Abstract Hollow-core fibers (HCFs) are special waveguides that can confine light waves in a low refractive index air region. They have much lower dispersion, nonlin-earity, thermal sensitivity, and transmission delay than traditional solid-core fibers.
