Hybrid photonic crystal fiber selectively infiltrated with liquid crystal

Abstract

We present hybrid propagation in a photonic liquid crystal fiber (PLCF) fabricated by selective infiltration of photonic crystal fiber (PCF) air channels with a nematic liquid crystal (LC). Temperature tuning of the position of the photonic bandgaps is also demonstrated.
