Numerical analysis of the As2Se3 chalcogenide glass multi-ring photonic crystal fiber

A novel kind of As 2 Se 3 chalcogenide glass multi-ring photonic crystal fiber is proposed. The characteristics of multi-ring photonic crystal fiber have been studied by the finite element method. Compared with another two kinds of single-core photonic crystal fibers, the multi-ring PCF can make the perfect combination of the effective mode area, the nonlinearity coefficient and multi-zero dispersion. It can achieve high power supercontinuum generation in middle infrared band; It also can be used in high-power pulsed laser fiber amplifier and high-power ultra-short pulse laser transmission in far infrared band.
