Foundations of Photonic Crystal Fibres

- Electromagnetic waveguides and photonic crystals have previously been studied separately: this book examines the point where the two topics coincide.- Provides both theoretical and numerical guidance on issues related to microstructured optical fibres.- The finite character of the cross-section of the fibres is usually taken into account by introducing an artificial periodicity (super-cell method) which tends to be conceptually debatable. However, this book's approach does not rely on such an assumption, but rather allows, among other things, the estimation of losses that are of prime importance from a technological point of view.
