Abstract
We demonstrate excitation of the azimuthally-polarized TE(01) cylindrical waveguide mode in hollow glass and metal waveguides with 780 nm light. Experimentally, we demonstrate formation of the vectorial vortex beams, and measure attenuation lengths of the TE(01) mode in hollow optical fibers with diameters of 50-100 microns. By silver-coating the inner walls of the dielectric fibers, we demonstrate a approximately 200% increase in the attenuation length.
