Abstract

A novel type of photonic crystal fiber structure with double cladding is proposed by full vector finite element method. The influences of this structure on its dispersion and loss are investigated with different inner cladding diameters, outer cladding diameters and air hole pitches. The results indicate that the dispersion varies from −23 ps/(nm·km) to −10 ps/(nm·km) in the band of 1.30 ∼ 1.8 µm, which has broadband dispersion compensation characteristics. The loss is 7.39 × 10−6 dB/km at the wavelength of 1.55 µm, which is by far the smallest value that has ever been reported.
