摘要
We describe the measured group-velocity dispersion characteristics of several air-silica photonic crystal fibers with anomalous group-velocity dispersion at visible and near-infrared wavelengths. The values measured over a broad spectral range are compared to those predicted for an isolated strand of silica surrounded by air. We demonstrate a strictly single-mode fiber which has zero dispersion at a wavelength of 700 nm, These fibers are significant for the generation of solitons and supercontinua using ultrashort pulse sources.
