Uploaded Archive (ZIP) includes 12 data files that are Excel format (.xlsx)


The figures are as follows:


Fig. 1:	
Calculated effective refractive index neff of the fundamental mode of the NANF-type HCF used in our experiments as a
function of wavelength.

Fig. 3:
Measured TCD of a thinly coated HCF. For comparison,we also show reported data for low-TCD fibers from Furukawa, Linden Photonics, and Yangtze Optical FC, an SMF
with standard acrylate coating (coated fiber diameter of 250 m), and an HCF with 75-m coating at temperatures above 60C.

Fig.4: 
Measured phase thermal sensitivity S? of thinly coated HCF with the corresponding TCD shown on the right y axis. For comparison, previously reported measured data for bare HCF, HCF
with 50-m, and S? extrapolated from 0 and 50-m data for a 10-m coated HCF are also shown.
