Micromachining structured optical fibers using focused ion beam milling (1609.00267v1)
Published 1 Sep 2016 in cond-mat.mtrl-sci
Abstract: A focused ion beam is used to mill side holes in air-silica structured fibres. By way of example, side holes are introduced in two types of air-structured fibres (1) a photonic crystal four-ring fibre and (2) a 6-hole single ring step index structured fibre.
