Recent developments in microstructured optical fibers and optical fiber glasses

In the last ten years, the development of air-silica microstructured fibers has opened an exciting route to study new type of optical waveguides, leading to a wide range of applications. Now, the possibility offer by this photonic technology to incorporate original materials and mix different fabrication processes give a promising way to adapt the optical designs and extend the applications in a large area from UV to mid IR.
