Abstract
Section titled āAbstractāIn this paper, we report a novel diamond-core optical crystal fiber with the fiber cladding of square air holes in hexagonal lattice structure and the core of circular air holes in diamond lattice structure for practical low-loss terahertz (THz) wave guiding. The whole PCF is based on cyclic-olefin copolymer (COC), which is commercially known as TOPAS. We demonstrate that the designed PCF shows an ultrahigh birefringence of the order 10~ <sup xmlns:mml=āhttp://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathMLā xmlns:xlink=āhttp://www.w3.org/1999/xlinkā>3</sup> . Other important propagation characteristics such as confinement loss, effective mode area and waveguide dispersion are also investigated.
