Propagation parameters in phase-separated fiber (PSF) for different wavelengths. a Mean localization length (localized mode size, lloc), obtained from numerical simulation, based on a contrast image of the PSF cross-section (see Methods). The localization length increases with the wavelength. We calculated the error bars as the sample s.d. for the 5 smallest localized modes per data point (wavelength). b As a comparison, we display experimental data: the lateral expansion during transport through PSF, defined as s.d. σPSF of a Gaussian point-spread function. As the localized modes from a enlarge, so does σPSF. The error bars show the sample s.d. over 17–18 measurements per data point (wavelength λ). c–f Wavelength-dependent image transport; the same input c transported through the same part of the PSF. Image quality degrades throughout the visible spectrum when increasing the wavelength of light.
