Description/Abstract

In this paper we present a novel and simple method of producing small core holey fibres with nonlinearity close to the maximum value achievable in silica. The fibres are based on a three-hole structure, where the core is suspended on three thin struts. An effective mode area of 1.6μm at 1.55μm were achieved. The potential for practical applications of such fibres is discussed.
