Abstract :
Trench-assisted few-mode multicore fiber with high-multiplicity and low-crosstalk characteristics was designed and fabricated. The core supported two-LP-mode transmission over C+L band. The fabricated fiber realized the worst case crosstalk of smaller than -30 dB/100km at 1625 nm with cladding diameter of 195.4 μm.
