Optical properties of microstructured fibre tuned by filling with magnetic liquids

Abstract

Alternative for adjust optical fiber light-guiding properties by bulk glass doping is provided by microstructured optical fibers, which allows access directly to the light guiding core via their microstructure. Following paper will report utilizing of suspended-core, so-called high-delta, microstructured optical fiber as an optimal medium for tuning and developing optical devices. Means of filling such fiber with variety of liquids will be presented and guided light affection in bare silica glass fiber will be demonstrated.
