Waveguide losses remain a challenge in the use of traditional methods of photonic crystals based chalcogenide fiber, so that new methods are developed for cast glass fibers that create records with nonlinear coefficients.

chalcogenide glasses are a mixture of elements chalcogens (sulfur, selenium and tellurium) and other elements such as arsenic, germanium, antimony or gallium. In comparison with silica glasses, they have several distinctive optical properties, such as a transmission window as far into the infrared (IR) spectral range (up to 25 h for telluride glasses). chalcogenide glasses [......]
