Abstract
We simulated a waveguide of an anisotropic liquid crystal(LC) in a hollow optical fiber(HOF) with O to L bands. It is known that chiral doped 5CB(4-Cyano-4'-pentylbiphenyl) under a capillary boundary condition form a double-twist selfassembly structure. Since birefringence of 5CB has a negative charge, the double-twist structure is equivalent to the graded ring core waveguide. Since optical axis of LC structure has a topological charge, LP modes split into orbital angular momentum(OAM) modes. Also the chiral asymmetry of the waveguide made the nonzero OAM mode to be the highest effective index. To ensure purity of mode, OAM of each modes were calculated and compared with the degree of phase rotation. Dispersion of the modes were also calculated.
