Modal parameter analysis for crown glass and phosphate glass photonic crystal fiber

Abstract

The dependence of modal parameter on different photonic crystal fiber has been taken into consideration for a comparative analysis. We consider here phosphate glass and crown glass photonic crystal fiber for our modal analysis for seven air-hole missing photonic crystal fiber. By the use of effective index method, the analysis has been put forwarded for L and C communication bands. Crown glass is found to be a good candidate for spot size and single mode application. Also most importantly, it is very much reliable for low loss and dispersion in comparison with theoretically computed phosphate glass and experimental results of silica core photonic crystal fiber.
