We propose a single negative metamaterial (MTM)-based hollow-core fiber with multilayer cladding employing zero-effective-phase bandgap for optical confinement in this paper. The cladding is formed from a ternary 1-D photonic crystal (T-1DPC) unit cell, which is basically a Mu-negative material sand...
