The effect of the spin and orbital parts of the Poynting vector on light localization in solid core microstructured optical fibers

Abstract

The optical properties of solid core microstructured optical fibers (SC MOFs) have been studied for a long time. The process of energy outflow of the core modes has always been associated with the process of constructive interference of the core modes fields under reflection from the photonic crystal cladding. In this paper, we want to offer a new look at the light localization in the core of SC MOFs related to the behavior of spin and orbital parts of the Poynting vector of these core modes and singularities arising in it.
