Abstract

Abstract We experimentally investigated the limits to the endlessly single-modeness of large mode area photonic crystal fibers. We analyzed two versions of a commercial large mode area fiber with equal structural parameters but five or seven confining rings, and in both cases we found that the single mode regime becomes critical for short ( 1 m) fibers. The same results were observed in large mode area fibers with different core sizes.
