Negative curvature fibre optics for delivery of high-peak power light for manufacturing applications

This thesis covers investigations into high peak power short (nanosecond) and ultrashort (picosecond and femtosecond) pulse delivery through novel hollow-core microstructured silica fibres - the Negative Curvature Fibre (NCF) and the Free Boundary Anti-Resonant Fibre (FBARF) for manufacturing applic...
