Abstract

See full text

A modified photonic crystal fiber yielding a higher peak power for a given maximum intensity. The multi-mode signal core has a depressed index of refraction that pushes the mode distribution to the core edges while a pattern of larger air holes is used to flatten the mode distribution. The core is further surrounded by tuned cladding elements defined by a pattern of smaller air holes that cause loss in all of the core modes except the fundamental while maintaining robust guiding of the fundamental mode.
