  • Abstract
    The authors examine the waveguiding properties of holey optical fibres made with circular silica tubes. The effective index of the fundamental mode and the first higher-order mode cutoff wavelength have been obtained for different fibres. The effective-V model is found to be unsuitable in describing the guiding properties of such fibres
