Abstract :
Fabrication of High Index Guiding Photonic Crystal Fiber is demonstrated using stack-and-draw technique. Novel rapid preform connecting method is presented, replacing an important process in conventional fabrication of microstructured fiber. Fabricated Photonic Crystal Fiber has core size of 5.77μm and displays low loss single-mode guiding in communication band.
