The modal properties of the designed fiber are numerically investigated based on an efficient finite element method. Simulation results of the fiber exhibit both a low material absorption loss of 0.0103-0.0145 cm^-1 and low dispersion below 0.5 ps/THz/cm within the 0.5-0.9 THz range. In addition, a number of other features of the fiber have been evaluated.enJournal article003007038410.1109/LPT.2017.26932030004004941000132-s2.0-85018957016355194Abbott, D. [0000-0002-0945-2674]
