研究目的
Investigating the properties of an equiangular spiral cladding photonic crystal fiber made of lead silicate glass SF57 for telecommunications applications, focusing on achieving flat dispersion, high nonlinearity, and low confinement loss.
研究成果
The proposed equiangular spiral photonic crystal fiber made of SF57 glass exhibits nearly zero dispersion at 1.55 μm and ultra-flattened dispersion across the C and L telecommunication bands. It also shows very low confinement loss and a high nonlinear coefficient, making it suitable for various applications in nonlinear optics. The design improvements significantly reduce dispersion and confinement loss compared to previous models.
研究不足
The study is based on simulations and theoretical models, which may not fully capture all practical challenges in fabricating the proposed fiber design. Additionally, the optimization of geometric parameters is complex and may require further experimental validation.
