Abstract
The paper reports numerical analysis of light propagation in a photonic crystal fiber filled with a nematic liquid crystal. Such fiber is not only an advanced anisotropic structure, but also can experience a change in its light propagation mechanism: from index guiding to the photonic band gap mechanism. Both of these mechanisms can be extensively tuned due to variations of liquid crystals and silica glass refractive indices differences. The obtained numerical simulations are confirmed by experimental results.
