Abstract

The paper presents salient features of photonic crystal fiber (PCF) at one place. Effective index model is used to study propagation characteristics of PCFs. The propagation parameters such as dispersion, spot size, splice loss and bend loss are studied for various designs of PCFs. The wavelength dependence of refractive index of silica has been included in all calculations.
