Abstract
A silica spiral photonic crystal fiber is presented here for tailoring two zero dispersion wavelengths (ZDWs) in the visible region. The proposed fiber has two ZDWs (523.1 and 716.8 nm) along with a very high nonlinearity parameter (1060 W−1 km−1 at 500 nm) around the visible region. The proposed design shows improvement over the group dispersion control and air holes collapsibility of highly air filled hexagonal photonic crystal fiber (HPCF), and low damage threshold of the soft glass photonic crystal fiber. Besides, the low air filling fraction (≈43%) of the proposed design reduces the probability of sustaining higher order modes in the fiber and also ensures easy fabrication due to fewer air holes.
