Image of the Week: Resonant Bend Loss Image captured by coupling light from a supercontinuum source into a 3-m length of anti-resonant hollow-core fibers (ARFs) and then bending a section of the ARF into a tight bend diameter. The bend corresponds to a critical bend diameter for blue, green and yellow wavelengths, causing the transverse loss of these wavelengths from the fiber. ARF fabricated by Leah Murphy and Stephanos Yerolatsitis at the University of Bath’s fiber fabrication facility. A white piece of paper was placed behind the fiber to capture the transverse loss of light. —Leah Murphy, University of Bath, UK [2023 #OPNPhotoContest Honorable Mention] *Link in Bio #light #supercontinuum #fibers
