Photonic Crystal Fibres and COMSOL

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on the use of COMSOL 3.5 for designing Photonic Crystal Fibres (PCF) and tapered optical fibres. Users seek guidance on the environmental setup for simulations and request resources for creating PCF structures within COMSOL. A reference to a paper on Confinement Loss Computations is provided, but users express the need for practical COMSOL files rather than theoretical analyses. Recommendations include engaging with the COMSOL Community for further assistance.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with COMSOL Multiphysics 3.5
  • Understanding of Photonic Crystal Fibre (PCF) design principles
  • Knowledge of tapered optical fibre characteristics
  • Basic concepts of simulation environments in COMSOL
NEXT STEPS
  • Research how to create a Photonic Crystal Fibre structure in COMSOL 3.5
  • Explore the COMSOL Community for user-generated content and support
  • Study the paper on Confinement Loss Computations for theoretical insights
  • Look for practical COMSOL project files related to photonic applications
USEFUL FOR

Researchers, optical engineers, and students interested in photonic applications, particularly those utilizing COMSOL for simulation and design of photonic structures.

Hello everyone, I am trying to understand COMSOL 3.5 and I am interested in Photonic crystal fibres and tapered optical fibres. First of all, could you please tell me what is the background of the layout? When you create a design/object, the rest area is air or I need to define another object as the environment?
Now, could you please tell me where I can find instructions of how creating a PCF structure in COMSOL? Furthermore, do you know any good notes/books for COMSOL for photonic applications??
Thank you in advance

Chris

Have you seen this paper yet on Confinement Loss Computations in Photonic Crystal Fibres using a Novel Perfectly Matched Layer Design? http://www.comsol.com/papers/1083/
It may help.

Yes my friend, I have already found this paper but its not really helpful because its more theoretical analysis. I need the COMSOL file, in order to start working in that. Do you have any other ideas?

Best Regards,
Chris
