Abstract

We demonstrate the first fluorozirconate microstructured fiber for use in the mid-infrared. The fiber preform was manufactured via extrusion of a $200 g$ billet through a complex graphite die. The fiber exhibits large mode area of $6600 μ m^{2}$ , loss of $3 dB ∕ m$ at $4 μ m$ and only marginal excess loss relative to a corresponding unstructured fiber.
