The authors report the fabrication and characterisation of photonic crystal (‘holey’) fibres in which multiple cores are created by filling in selected air-holes with glass. The guidance mechanism is modified total internal reflection. Using a tunable diode laser, the inter-core coupling is investigated as a function of air-hole spacing.
