  • Abstract
    Propagation effects in photonic liquid crystal fiber (PLCF) microstructures, composed of photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) filled with nematic liquid crystals (NLCs), are investigated. Due to the introduction of NLCs characterized by both low and high material birefringence into the cladding air holes, photonic bandgap guiding has been observed.
