Abstract
High-Energy light in the UV-visible regime has seen an amazing boom of R&D primarily in the communities of the micro-machining and welding of highly reflective metals such as copper and aluminum, as well as in the areas of medical lasers and underwater sensing. Transport in the UV-visible range is extremely affected by the wavelength-dependent material dispersion and absorption of the transport optics. By utilizing the air core in a nested anti-resonant hollow core fiber (NANF) one can enable high confinement of the fundamental mode to achieve low-loss transmission in many environments. This paper presents a numerical study following the development process and initial experiments of a novel NANF designed for UV-vis transmission.
