Image Transport Through Meter-Long Randomly Disordered Silica-Air Optical Fiber

Abstract We present a randomly disordered silica-air optical fiber featuring a 28.5% air filling fraction in the structured region, and low attenuation below 1 dB per meter at visible wavelengths. The quality of images transported through this fiber is shown to be comparable to, or even better than,...
