Visible Spectrum Multicore Fibers with 10 and 16 Cores

We demonstrate 10- and 16-core multicore fibers with all cores operating in a singlemode with <0.06dB/m of loss in the visible spectrum. These fibers address emerging applications requiring spatial division multiplexing in the visible spectrum. (C) 2021 The Author(s)

Automated summary

The study demonstrates 10- and 16-core multicore fibers operating in single mode with minimal loss in the visible spectrum. These fibers are designed for emerging applications that require spatial division multiplexing in the visible spectrum.
