Fabrication of multiple parallel suspended-core optical fibers by sheet-stacking

We demonstrate the fabrication of a novel type of optical fibers with multiple parallel air-suspended cores by the sheet-stacking method. Using this technique we have constructed optical fibers with up to 10 parallel micron-size suspended cores. No extra scattering loss from the fabrication process...
