Photonic crystal fiber
A photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is also called as holey fiber, hole-assisted fiber, microstructure fiber, or microstructured fiber. It is a kind of optical fiber based on the properties of photonic crystals. Photonic crystal fiber employs a microstructured arrangement of material in a background material of different refractive index. PCFs may be divided into two categories, high index guiding fibers and low index guiding fibers. Spectroscopy, metrology, biomedicine, imaging, telecommunication, industrial machining and military technology are the applications for photonic crystal fibers. Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology welcomes all the research, review articles, and commentaries related to this topic is encouraged to be published in our journal.
