Abstract

We demonstrate the construction of reasonably long and non-polarization changing photonic fiber waveguide using Teflon which is a readily available and highly flexible material. Due to its relatively low loss coefficient, the possibility of preparing longer photonic fiber waveguide, which has the potential of guiding intense THz radiation, can be easily attained.
