Abstract :
The great success of optical fibres in telecommunications has generated numerous applications in a number of related fields, such as sensing, biophotonics and high-power lasers. The topic remains extraordinarily buoyant and new materials, structure and applications emerge unabated. The talk will review recent developments and explore future possibilities.
