Abstract(in English) A holey fiber having a core with an elliptical-hole lattice structure, which is referred to as an elliptical-hole core circular-hole holey fiber (EC-CHF), can be easily designed as a single-polarization fiber by using the fundamental-space filling modes of the core and cladding lattices and, thus, possesses a more peculiar mode field distribution compared with standard optical fibers. Therefore, for its practical implementation, EC-CHF to standard fiber connection is a crucial issue. Here, the splice losses between an EC-CHF and a standard fiber are acculately computed by using a vector-finite element method. Moreover, a simple splice loss evaluation by approximating a real EC-CHF with an equivalent SI fiber is presented. We found that the splice losses between an EC-CHF and a standard fiber are comparable to those between standard fibers, when the air-hole sizes are relatively small.
