Band Gap guidance in LCPBG fibres ? Thermal tunability in LCPBG fibres ? Electrically tunable PBG guidance ? Optical tunability of LC-PCF components Highlights in the history of crystal fibres -Low-loss single-mode fibres from undoped silica (Kaiser et al., Bell Syst. Tech. J., 53, 1974) -The photonic bandgap effect was first described (Yablonovitch,John, Phys.Rev.Lett, 58, 1987) -Fibres having a photonic crystal cladding demonstrated (Knight et al., Opt.Lett., 21, 1996) -First photonic bandgap guidance demonstrated in an optical fibre (Knight et al. Science, 282, 1998) -Numerous results on photonic crystal fibres from 1999 to2004.
