Two-dimensional modelling of photonic structures
Čtyroký, Jiří
A novel method for two-dimensional modelling of integrated photonic structures by using of harmonic expansion of optical fields is presented. The principle of the method and its recent improvements are described. The method is critically assessed and compared with other modal methods, namely with the bi-directional eigenmode expansion method and with the Fourier expansion method. A few examples if its application are shown, too.

Drivers and inhibitors of fibre optics advancement into access networks at home and abroad
Kuchar, Anton ; Hrstka, J.
Inspite of the fact that FTTx networks are the most future-proof solution for the access networks, they are mature and there is sufficient supply of equipment on the market, the pace of their implementation in various countries and regions vastly differs. In the contribution, the up-to-date situation concerning implementation and utilization of optical fibre access networks is presented and drivers and inhibitors of fibre optics advancement into access networks are identified.

Tapered optical fibers
Martan, Tomáš ; Kaňka, Jiří ; Podrazký, Ondřej ; Kašík, Ivan ; Matějec, Vlastimil
A paper is focused on a design and manufacturing microstructure optical fibers with a high nonlinear coefficient, which was reached by using a nonlinear glass and tapering a microstructure optical fiber section. In designed highly nonlinear fiber taper, supercontinum generation was simulated. Designed tapered microstructure optical fiber was manufactured with using constructed tapering apparatus. The tapering apparatus was also employed for producing fiber tips, as probes for pH measurement.
