Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a structure of an optical fiber capable of satisfying desired requirements of an output power, a propagation distance, and a beam quality. In the design of the PCF of the present invention, the PCF has air holes having diameters d and intervals Λ in an overlapping region where a region of Aof a desired value or more and a cutoff region in a desired higher-order mode overlap each other on a graph where the horizontal axis represents d/Λ and the vertical axis represents Λ, so that it is possible to sufficiently cut off the mode which is the desired higher-order mode or more, and thus, it is possible to select a region where the Ais large.
