Abstract

Light propagating in the hollow-core photonic crystal fiber is based on the photonic band-gap (PBG) structures. Triangular and honeycomb structures are sub-structure of the alternating hexagonal structure. In this paper, several geometric factors such as structure type, air-filling factor, and core size, are investigated and compared on the gap map of are triangular and honeycomb photonic crystal fiber. The basic configuration has a cylindrical shape with an air-hole in the silica surroundings. The propagation beam is assumed to have hybrid mode polarization. Simulation of triangular and honeycomb structures in three dimensions has been shown that there is no band-gap structure for longitudinal transverse modes. The assumed input energy exhibits in the C band. The geometrical parameters include lattice period, air-filling factor considers to have the same values in both structures so that the structures are comparable. The results of this paper have been performed using R-soft photonic band-gap software.
