Macrobending loss properties of photonic crystal fibres with different air filling fractions
We present experimental and theoretical analysis of macrobending losses of photonic crystal fibres with various air filling fractions. A scalar, effective-index method provides a good description of the losses for fibres with limited air filling fractions, whereas the method overestimates the losses for fibres with larger air filling fractions.
