Image Transport Through Meter-Long Randomly Disordered Silica-Air Optical Fiber

We present a randomly disordered silica-air optical fiber featuring a 28.5% air filling fraction in the structured region, and low attenuation below 1 dB per meter at visible wavelengths. The quality of images transported through this fiber is shown to be comparable to, or even better than, that of...

description We present a randomly disordered silica-air optical fiber featuring a 28.5% air filling fraction in the structured region, and low attenuation below 1 dB per meter at visible wavelengths. The quality of images transported through this fiber is shown to be comparable to, or even better than, that of images sent through commercial multicore imaging fiber. We demonstrate robust high-quality optical image transfer through 90 cm-long fibers with disordered silica-air structure, more than an order of magnitude improvement compared to previous disordered fiber imaging distances. The effects of variations of wavelength and feature size on transported image quality are investigated experimentally.
