Fig4_measured_and_simulated_IL.xlsx			        Sheet 1 (simulated IL): Simulated IL over beam_width/core_diameter ratio for: 1st window NANF (Columns 1 and 2), 2nd window NANF (Columns 3 and 4), and 1st window DNANF (Columns 5 and 6)
								Sheet 2 (measured IL): Measured IL over beam_width/core_diameter ratio for: 1st window NANF (Columns 1 and 2), 2nd window NANF (Columns 3 and 4), and 1st window DNANF (Columns 5 and 6)


Fig.5:
Fig5_Fourier_transform_of_the_transmission_spectra.xlsx		Fourier transform-calculated transmission (in dB) over wavelength (in nm) for 2nd window NANF. Sheet 1 (GRIN100_based MFA): for Grin100; Sheet 2 (OM-based-MFA): for OM2.


Fig.6:
