Ultra-low loss hollow-core waveguides using high-contrast gratings

A novel ultra-low loss single-mode hollow-core waveguide using high-contrast grating (HCG) is proposed and simulated. The loss can be as low as 0.006 dB/m, three orders of magnitude lower than the state-of-art chip-scale waveguides.
