Abstract A new type of V-shaped photonic crystal fiber with elliptical air-holes is proposed to realize simultaneous high birefringence and nonlinearity at a wavelength of 1.55 μm. The full vector finite element method was adopted to investigate its characteristics, including birefringence, nonlinearity, and dispersion. The PCF exhibited a very high birefringence of 2.89×10-2 and very high nonlinear coefficient of 102.69 W-1·km-1. In particular, there were two zero-dispersion wavelengths (ZDWs) in the visible (X:640-720 nm and Y:730-760 nm) and near-infrared regions (X:1050-1606 nm and Y:850-1500 nm). The combination of high birefringence and nonlinearity allowed the PCF to maintain the polarization state and generate a broadband super continuum, with potential applications in nonlinear optics.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
