Design of Endlessly Single Mode Photonic Crystal Fibers with Desirable Properties using HC-EDA Algorithm

In this article, hill climbing (hc) and estimation of distribution algorithm (eda) are integrated to produce a hybrid intelligent algorithm for design of endlessly single mode photonic crystal fibers (smpcfs) structure with desired properties over the c communication band. in order to analyzing the fiber components, finite difference frequency domain (fdfd) solver is applied. in addition, a special cost function which simultaneously includes the confinement loss, dispersion and its slope is considered in the proposed optimization algorithm. the results revealed that the proposed method is a powerful tool for solving this optimization problem. the optimized pcf exhibits an ultra-low confinement loss and low dispersion at 1.55 µm wavelength with a nearly zero dispersion slope over the c communication band.
