We report the first fabrication of a high-index-core one-dimensional microstructured optical fiber with high index-contrast layers. Extrusion is utilized to fabricate the microstructured preform. Single mode guidance and high nonlinearity were observed in the fiber.

Sub-picosecond timing jitter is demonstrated for 5 GHz, <10 ps optical pulses generated from monolithic passively mode-locked quantum dot lasers. Their low cost, compact size and DC-biased operation make them ideal for high speed optical interconnects.
