Abstract: A dispersion-compensation microstructure fiber uses pure silica glass as the background material. It includes the core, the first-type defects, the second-type defects and the cladding. The air holes in the fiber cross section are arranged in the equilateral triangle lattice with the same adjacent air-hole to air-hole spacing. The core is formed by omitting 1 air hole. The first-type defects are formed by the 6 air holes locating at the vertices of hexagonal third-layer porous structure surrounding the core and their surrounding background material. The second-type defects are formed by the air holes in the first air-hole layer surrounding each first-type defect and their surrounding background material. The second-type defects act as the porous structure to surround the first-type defects and the fundamental defect modes, and can also combine with the first-type defects to act as the core of the second-order defect modes.

Abstract: A single-core polarization-maintaining dispersion compensation micro-structured optical fiber comprises a fiber core, a first layer of air holes surrounding the fiber core, the cladding defects on the x-axis, the cladding defects on the y-axis, and the cladding. The air holes in the fiber cross section are arranged in the equilateral triangle lattice. Three consecutive air holes are omitted to form a solid area. This solid area is the fiber core. There are two cladding defects along the x-axis. Their centers are respectively located at the two vertices of the hexagon on the x-axis, which is formed by the fourth air hole ring from the core exclusive the central air hole. Each cladding defect along the x-axis contains 7 air holes and goes through from the core by only 1 layer of air holes. There are also two cladding defects along the y-axis.

Abstract: A polarization-maintaining dispersion-compensation microstructure fiber includes an inner core, an air-hole array in area 1 and an air-hole array in area 2. The air holes in the area 1 and 2 air-hole arrays are arranged in square lattice. The air-hole arrays in areas 1 and 2 are dislocated by half-layer along y-direction. In area 1, 2 air holes in the middle row are omitted to form a solid area as the inner core. 2 outer cores are located in 2 sub-areas of area 2, and each outer core contains 2 air holes. The long (or short) axes of the inner and outer cores are perpendicular, and the center points of the inner core and the two outer cores are located on the x-axis. The optical mode has a large negative dispersion in a certain polarized direction of the inner core, and the microstructure fiber can maintain the polarized direction of this mode during transmission.
