Mode converter based on dual-core all-solid photonic bandgap fiber
In this paper, we present a mode-selective coupler based on a dual-core all-solid photonic bandgap fiber (AS-PBGF). Because they are all-solid, AS-PBGF-based mode converters are easier to splice to other fibers than those based on air-hole photonic crystal fibers. Mode conversions between the LP01 and LP11 modes, LP01 and LP21 modes, and LP01 and LP01 modes are obtained at the wavelength λ _ 1550 nm. The 3 dB wavelength bandwidth of these mode converters are 47.8, 20.3, and 20.3 nm, respectively.
