We demonstrate hollow-core photonic-crystal fibers (PCFs) with a core diameter of 45 μm and a period of the photonic-crystal cladding of 7 μm. These fibers are shown to allow a waveguide delivery of 4-mJ 15-ns pulses of 1.06-μm radiation of a __Q__-switched Nd: YAG laser. Hollow PCFs reported in thi

✦ Synopsis
We report fabrication and characterization of hollow
photonic-crystal fibers (PCFs) with a diamond-shaped core and a
Kagome-lattice cladding. Air-guides modes strongly confined to the
hollow core of the fiber are shown to exist within the ranges of
wavelengths from 450 to 560 nm and from 470 to 630 nm for two
hollow diamond-shaped-core PCFs with slightly different geometry
parameters. Polarization-maintaining air-mode guidance of 100-fs
second-harmonic pulses of 625-nm Cr:forsterite laser radiation is
demonstrated.

## Abstract An all‐fiber Fabry–Pérot accelerometer based on cantilever structure is constructed in this article.The Fabry–Pérot interferometer is formed by splicing the ends of two SMF‐28e fibers to the cleaved end of a hollow‐core photonic crystal fiber (HCPCF). We analyzed the relationship betwee
## Abstract In this article, a hollow core photonic band gap fiber is numerically investigated to obtain low‐loss waveguiding in the terahertz region (0.1–10 THz) of the electromagnetic spectrum. Waveguide design in this spectral region is an arduous challenge due to the high‐conductivity losses of
Laser ignition via hollow core photonic crystal fiber (PCF) as a delivery medium has been demonstrated in the present work. Minimum pulse energy from a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser of only 150 μJ was achieved to ignite rich fuel mixtures of methane-air. Aspheric lens of high numerical aperture has been u
A photonic-crystal fiber that supports only a few guided modes is shown to allow the generation of a spectrally isolated wavelength-tunable hollow beam, which is ideally suited for optical trapping and laser tweezing.
