Optical properties of CS2/silica step-index fibres. a GVD map: the spectral position of the ZDW for various core diameters (at 20 °C, 1 atm). AD anomalous dispersion, ND normal dispersion. The black marks indicate the work by other groups reported earlier. The red star refers to the experiments reported here. b Transmission microscope picture of a filled liquid-core step-index fibre and c electron microscope image of the capillaries used in this work. d GVD and nonlinear coefficient of the fundamental mode (HE11) of the CS2/silica fibre. e Estimated modal attenuation coefficient α m compared to 1 m bulk CS2 absorption measured up to 2.15 μm. The vertical dashed line indicates the pump wavelength λ p
