Abstract :
Microstructured polymer optical fibers (mPOF) have many unique and promising characters compared with traditional polymer optical fibers, such as the infinite single-mode guidance, the photonic band-gap effect and the unique nonlinearities, which can offer promising opportunities in optical communication system and optical sensor field. The mechanism of photonic bandgap effect of the one dimension photonic crystal model was explained. And then the Optiwave FDTD 4.0 software was used to simulate the mPOF´ transmission field, which can be achieved by calculating the transmittance of light propagating through mPOF transverse section. Three types of mPOF models were designed in this paper, after which the relationship between transmission windows and the structure of mPOF was deduced by means of simulation and calculation. The results may be helpful to the following research of the mPOF.
