We propose a four-ring hexagonal holey fiber (HF) which exhibits near zero ultra-flattened chromatic dispersion and nonlinear property simultaneously in a modest number of rings. The finite element method with perfectly matched layers boundary condition is used to investigate the guiding properties. A four ring HF with flattened dispersion of 0.85ps/nm/km from 1.14 to 1.60 µm wavelength range, 21.34W-1km-1 nonlinear coefficient and splice loss 3.82 dB at 1.55µm is numerically demonstrated.
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.
