Abstract

In this letter we present a novel slotted core fiber incorporating a slotted cladding for the terahertz band. The modal properties of the designed fiber are numerically investigated based on an efficient finite element method (FEM). Simulation results of the fiber exhibit both a low material absorption loss of 0.0103–0.0145 cm-1 and low dispersion below 0.5 ps/THz/cm within the 0.5–0.9 THz range. Additionally, a number of other features of the fiber have been evaluated.
