摘要

A novel circular photonic crystal fiber (C-PCF) was specifically engineered to facilitate the transmission of orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes, accommodating topological charges up to 12. The C-PCF was designed including a ring core made of silica and the cladding comprises an arrangement of air holes within the silica background. The characteristics of optical dissemination were analyzed and simulated using Finite-Difference Eigen-mode (FDE) solver. Furthermore, a perfectly match layer (PML) was used to increase the precision of the analysis result. All of the realized OAM modes generated by C-PCF have a rather flat dispersion, and the loss of most eigen-modes is low, below 0.0026 dB/cm. A small difference of approximately 0.001 was observed in the eigen-mode effective indices, which prevents mode degeneracy and ensures stability during OAM mode transmission. The introduced-PCF in this work shows promise as a potential choice for transmitting OAM modes at a wavelength of 1.55 μm that is in demand for increasing capacity in optical communication systems, terabit data transmission and micromanipulation tasks.
