Development of multi-element fibres for applications in space-division multiplexing

This thesis presents a novel multi-element fibre (MEF) technology for implementing space-division multiplexing (SDM) in optical fibres. MEF comprises multiple fibre-elements that are drawn and coated together using a common polymer coating. In MEF, the fibre-elements are compatible with current tech...
