Abstract

We report the observation of spatio-spectral distribution in cladding modes of a single-mode large mode area photonic crystal fiber. The cladding modes excitation was achieved without any external fiber exposure. The optical field patterns of the cladding modes within different pump wavelength are investigated. To the best of knowledge the spatio- spectral distribution in cladding modes of large mode photonic crystal fiber is demonstrated for the first time. The results are of immediate interest in applications demanding devices based on core and cladding mode coupling in photonic crystal fibers.
