High index-contrast fiber waveguides and applications

In general, in one aspect, the disclosure features a fiber waveguide having a waveguide axis, including a core extending along the waveguide axis and a confinement region extending along the waveguide axis surrounding the core. The confinement region includes a periodic structure along a radial dire...

Zusammenfassung:	In general, in one aspect, the disclosure features a fiber waveguide having a waveguide axis, including a core extending along the waveguide axis and a confinement region extending along the waveguide axis surrounding the core. The confinement region includes a periodic structure along a radial direction extending from the waveguide axis and each period in the periodic structure includes a layer of a chalcogenide glass and a layer of a polymer.
