Cover Story: Anti-resonant Hollow-core Fibers (AR-HCFs) excel in high-power pulse delivery, telecommunications, space exploration, and sensing. At 2.79 µm, they improve the maneuverability of medical handpieces, reduce system complexity, and enhance efficiency. However, conventional AR-HCFs lack polarization-maintaining capability, limiting practical use. To overcome this, we propose a polarization-maintaining AR-HCF for 2.79 µm, combining symmetrical geometry with asymmetric refractive index cladding of fused silica and higher-index Mid-IR glass. This design offers reliable optical guidance for Er;Cr:YSGG laser therapy systems. View this paper
