Abstract

Polymer microtips manufactured at the end face of standard optical fibers have been used for effectively coupling with a selected antiresonant fibers (ARFs). Four tested ARFs had similar geometry, 7 capillaries placed around the central air core. It was shown how such coupling structure modified the ARFs spectral characteristics. Applying polymer microtip successfully excited additional bands. Illumination of the ARF with a microtip that operates as a microlens causes a change in numerical aperture and mode number.
