Abstract :
A detailed modal analysis of photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is carried out by using the finite element method (FEM) in FEMLAB environment. The effective mode index of the fundamental mode is found out and the effective mode area is calculated for different PCF structures. Finally, dispersion property of different PCF structures is numerically calculated and it is found that the dispersion profile of the PCF can be controlled by appropriately choosing diameter and pitch of air holes.
