Abstract:
We provide methods and apparatus for preparing crystalline-clad and crystalline core optical fibers with minimal or no breakage by minimizing the influence of thermal stress during a liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) process as well as the fiber with precisely controlled number of modes propagated in the crystalline cladding and crystalline core fiber via precisely controlling the diameter of crystalline fiber core with under-saturated LPE flux. The resulting crystalline cladding and crystalline core optical fibers are also reported.

Claim (Index 20):
The crystalline cladding-crystalline core optical fiber system of  claim 16 , wherein at least one double-cladding comprises of an outer (crystalline or amorphous) cladding and an inner crystalline cladding, and wherein the outer cladding has a refractive index lower than a refractive index of the inner crystalline cladding.
