Optimal Design of Large Mode Area Photonic Crystal Fibers Using Multi-Objective Gray Wolf Optimization Technique

A new multiobjective optimization framework is presented for designing large mode area photonic crystal fibers (LMA-PCFs) with effective single-mode operation in the bent state. For optimizing the structure, we utilize the multiobjective gray wolf optimizer (MOGWO) to maximize the effective mode area (EMA) and the bending loss of higher order modes (HOMs), while minimizing the fundamental mode (FM...
