Abstract

Photonic Crystal Fibers have proved to be an efficient medium for propagation of electromagnetic radiation especially in the Terahertz regime. Located between the infra-red and microwave region, the Terahertz frequency range lies within 0.1 to 1 Terahertz. We report a design of a graduating ring rectangular-core Photonic Crystal Fiber, having background material as Cyclic-Olefin Copolymer (COC), with extremely low confinement loss of 4.9399 × 10⁻⁷ dB/cm and material loss of 0.2 cm⁻¹ at 0.22 mm pitch value. Due to the very low loss values, such a structure of the Photonic Crystal Fiber can be used for efficient low-loss data communication.
