Author: Megha Vilasrao Kumawat and Dr.Ramesh Bharti

Abstract: This paper presents and explores a new design of hybrid Photonic Crystal Fiber (HPCF) with different cladding for obtaining low dispersion in a wide range of wavelength band. The fundamental mode of dispersion for such a Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF) is analyzed mathematically using Finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. In a given proposed design circular and elliptical air holes are placed to in a circle of boundary. Proposed structure offers low dispersion (-4 to 8) ps/(km.nm) for a wavelength range of 1.15 to 1.65 μm. Proposed structure can be used for different applications such like optical communication and sensors.
