“HybridFiber: Localized in-line precipitation of metallic nanostructures in hybrid optical fiber” German Science Foundation Optical waveguides (WGs) represent key elements in modern photonic systems. Light guidance in such WGs is achieved by transversely confining the electromagnetic (EM) wave by a dielectric gradient. Such a gradient can readily be obtained in a core-cladding fiber geometry. The … Continue reading HybridFiber: Localized in-line precipitation of metallic nanostructures in hybrid optical fiber
