Optical Fiber Communication
For modern glass optical fiber,
the maximum transmission distance
is limited
Not by attenuation
Butby Dispersion,
Or spreading of optical pulse as they
travel along the fiber

Our Approach
Use Sub-wavelength diameter fiber Refereed
to as nanofiber
High nonlinearity,
Strong confinement
Low loss coupling with the optical fiber or
fiber devices
Large evanescent fields outside their
physical boundaries
Low linear absorption
Low two photon absorption High nonlinearity (n2 as high
as 310-18 m2/W )
Fast response time because of the absence of the free
carrier effects
Promising nonlinear materials in the IR region

Conclusions
Air-cladding as well as borosilicate cladding As

nanofibers show larger
chromatic dispersions as compared with large-diameter optical
waveguides.
Borosilicate cladding As
2
S
3
nanofiber can be designed to achieve zero
flattened dispersion in the telecommunication window, around 1.5 m.
zero flattened dispersion at 1.5 m is achieved when the core diameter is
500 nm for the air clad As
2
S
3
nanofiber and 731 nm for the silicate clad
As
2
S
3
nanofiber.
At a particular wavelength, the dispersion of the nanofiber can be made
zero, positive or considerably negative by proper selection of diameter
and/or cladding material.
Such dispersion tailoring may provide opportunities for developing a
number of miniaturized, high-performance and novel types of non-linear
photonic devices operating at low threshold power.
