    Abstract

    We found the beam quality factor M2 of the fundamental mode as a function of wavelength is U-shaped in the working photonic bandgap (PBG) of an all-solid PBG fiber (AS-PBGF) for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, and our simulation results also match well with the phenomenon. The normal band that is near the high-frequency edge of the third PBG integrates the lowest M2 and single-mode operation simultaneously, while the other two edge regions suffer from anomalous variation of M2 versus wavelength. The general applicability of this finding can be further extended to other PBGs and also other representative structures in the AS-PBGF field.
