Abstract
We present experimental and theoretical results on air-silica Bragg fibers. The TE/sub 01/ mode is observed for the first time to our knowledge in Bragg fibers. We could transmit light by bandgap guiding over 50 m.

Single-Mode Photonic Band Gap Guidance of Light in Air.

TL;DR: The confinement of light within a hollow core (a large air hole) in a silica-air photonic crystal fiber is demonstrated and certain wavelength bands are confined and guided down the fiber.

Theory of Bragg fiber

TL;DR: In this article, the possibility of using Bragg reflection in a cylindrical fiber to obtain lossless confined propagation in a core with a lower refractive index than that of the cladding medium is proposed and analyzed.

Low-loss hollow-core silica/air photonic bandgap fibre

TL;DR: The fabrication and characterization of long lengths of low attenuation photonic bandgap fibre are reported here, and Coupling between surface and core modes of the structure is identified as an important contributor to transmission loss in hollow-core photonicBandgap fibres.

Low-loss asymptotically single-mode propagation in large-core OmniGuide fibers.

TL;DR: The light-propagation characteristics of OmniGuide fibers, which guide light by concentric multi-layer dielectric mirrors having the property of omnidirectional reflection, are presented, promising that the properties of silica fibers may be surpassed even when nominally poor materials are employed.
