Abstract :
A Kagome-lattice hollow-core photonic crystal fiber with a hypocycloid-shaped core enhances the coupling-inhibition between the core- and cladding-modes, thus providing an optical attenuation <;250dB/km. This rivals the state-of-the-art photonic bandgap hollow-core fibers is demonstrated.
