On Demand Spatial Beam Self-Focusing in Hexagonal Multicore Fiber

Combination of the classical effect of light self-focusing and recently emerged multicore fiber technology offers new opportunities for the spatio-temporal control and manipulation of high-power light radiation. Here, we apply genetic algorithm to design a system enabling self-focusing of light in v...

description Combination of the classical effect of light self-focusing and recently emerged multicore fiber technology offers new opportunities for the spatio-temporal control and manipulation of high-power light radiation. Here, we apply genetic algorithm to design a system enabling self-focusing of light in various fiber cores on demand. The proposed concept is general and can be applied and adapted to any multicore fiber or two-dimensional array of coupled waveguides paving a way for numerous applications.
