Abstract :
A rigorous full-vectorial modal solution approach based on the finite element method has been developed to calculate the mode field profiles, spot-sizes, effective indices and the cutoff condition of the fundamental and higher order guided modes, to identify the single mode operation ranges for photonic crystal fibers in their use in the terahertz frequency ranges.
