AI Article Synopsis
- The research examines how interstitial air holes (IAHs) affect the photonic bandgaps (PBGs) in honeycomb photonic bandgap fibers (HPBFs).
- IAHs are found to widen the PBGs and make them more uniform at the same level of air filling.
- The findings are explained using the node-and-vein concept, which helps to understand the unique behavior of the PBGs.
Article Abstract
The photonic bandgaps (PBGs) of honeycomb photonic bandgap fibers (HPBFs) with and without interstitial air holes (IAHs) are numerically investigated. It is shown that the IAHs can increase the width of PBGs in HPBFs, and also that at the same moderate total air filling fraction, HPBFs with IAHs produce more uniform PBGs than those without IAHs. The bandgap behavior is qualitatively explained using the node-and-vein concept.
