A team of researchers from the University of Southampton in the UK and Université Laval in Canada, have successfully measured back-reflection in next generation hollow-core fibres. 
The research, which was published in The Optical Societys Optica journal, demonstrated that back-reflection is around 10,000 times lower than conventional optical fibres.
Backscattering is generally seen as undesirable because it causes attenuation of signals propagating down the optical fibre and can limit the performance…
