Our latest Nested Anti-resonant Nodeless Fibres made their way to San Diego for the OFC 2019 post-deadline papers. Abstract: We report a Nested Antiresonant Nodeless hollow-core Fiber with 700nm bandwidth (1240-1940nm) and a minimum loss of 6.6dB/km at 1550nm. Penalty-free 100-Gb/s PAM4 data transmission from O- to L-band is demonstrated …
The AirGuide Photonics programme features on Science and Engineering South this month, highlighting the record low loss NANF result presented at the ECOC postdeadlines and colloborations with UCL. Check out the whole article: https://www.ses.ac.uk/2019/04/03/fibre-optics/
We will be presenting 3 contributed papers on topics of ultra-stable signals, in-line fibre devices, and fibre design. There will also be a tutorial by Professor Francesco Poletti: Advances in Hollow Optical Fiber Technologies and Applications.
A team from both UCL and the ORC have demonstrated the first multi terabit transmission through a tubular hollow core anti-resonant fibre. The results are published here in the Journal of Lightwave Technology. Nonlinearity-free Coherent Transmission in Hollow-Core Antiresonant Fiber We demonstrate the first multi-terabit/s WDM data transmission through hollow-core …
We’re pleased to announce the Hollow Core Fibre group site is now live. This website was created to showcase our work, show off our latest results and let everyone know what we’ve been up to. It includes some information about the group itself and the University of Southampton, as well …
A 500m length of Nested Anti-resonant Nodeless Fibre was presented at the European Conference of Optical Communications this month, it is the lowest loss ever measured in a hollow core fibre of any kind with a value of just 1.3 dB/km, and is shown to carry data. The breakthrough was …
Presented at Frontiers In Optics this week is an analytical model to predict the fabrication parameters and fibre geometry for hollow core anti-resonant tubular fibres. Such a model can identify the parameters for the draw to improve efficiency, and can check the feasibility of given geometry. The model also helped …
