The present invention provides methods of generating short wavelength radiation, methods of transporting short wavelength radiation, and apparati used in these methods. One embodiment of the invention provides a method of transporting short wavelength radiation using a photonic band gap fiber. Another embodiment of the invention provides a method of transporting short wavelength radiation using a bundle of photonic band gap fibers. Another embodiment of the invention provides a method of generating ultraviolet radiation using high harmonic generation by pumping a noble gas-filled photonic band gap fiber with a pulsed laser source.

Methods of generating and transporting short wavelength radiation and apparati used therein

Disclosed is an optical transmission system and module which includes a negative dispersion, dispersion compensating optical fiber coupled to a micro-structured optical fiber (such as band gap fiber, photonic crystal fiber or holey fiber) for compensating for the accumulated dispersion in a transmission fiber. The optical transmission system and module in accordance with the invention provides substantially equal compensation of total dispersion over an operating wavelength band, reduced overall system length, and lower insertion loss.

Dispersion compensated optical fiber transmission system and module including micro-structured optical fiber

An electromagnetically induced transparent (EIT) photonic band-gap fiber (PBG). The EIT-PBG combines the pass gap and band gap properties of a photonic band gap (PBG) fiber with the transparency control of mediums exhibiting EIT effects, allowing the formation of various optical devices.
