- This work demonstrated, for the first time, the viability of high-capacity data transmission in a potential new low-loss optical fibre data transmission window at wavelengths around 2µm by exploiting light guidance in hollow core fibres. This paper represented a primary outcome from the >10MEu EU/FP7 MODEGAP programme and generated major interest in the telecommunication research community (e.g. https://www.osaopn.org/home/articles/volume-30/march-2019/features/time-to-open-the-2-micron-window/). Consequently several major research programs around the world are exploring this topic, including: EPSRC UK EP/P030181/1 “Airguide Photonics”, NSF Singapore, “A cutting-edge silicon based Mid-IR photonics platform for emerging communication and sensing applications,” and SFI Ireland “IPIC2 Irish Photonic Integration Research Centre."
