Data for "Azimuthal confinement: the missing ingredient in understanding confinement loss in antiresonant, hollow-core fibres"

This dataset contains all the underlying data used in Figures 4 to 7 of the associated paper. The paper is a theoretical and computational analysis of the guidance mechanism and confinement loss in antiresonant, hollow-core optical fibres. The data includes the results of both simplified theoretical models and large scale numerical calculations for a set of cladding structures that demonstrate the effects of azimuthal confinement.

Spreadsheet containing the data used for Figure 5(a). The three tabs refer to the three different ways to calculate the azimuthal component of the transverse wavevector in air, as described in the paper. In the "K_{a theta} effective" tab the highlighted column gives the data used in the figure. In the "K_{a theta} exact" tab the highlighted cells are dummy values to pad out the columns.

Spreadsheet containing the data used for Figures 5(b) and 5(c). The first four tabs contain data used to plot the full lines in Fig. 5(b). The fifth and sixth tabs contain results of numerical calculations of the confinement loss that are used to plot the points shown in Figs. 5(b) and 5(c) respectively.

Spreadsheet containing the data used for Figure 6. The first two tabs contain values of the azimuthal component of the transverse wavevector in air derived from boundary element calculations of the wavefunction, as described in the paper. The third and fourth tabs contain approximate and exact values of the azimuthal component of the transverse wavevector; in the fourth tab the highlighted cells are dummy values to pad out the columns.
