Abstract
We demonstrate experimentally and theoretically that the core-guided mode in helically twisted photonic crystal fiber exhibits resonantly enhanced optical activity and circular dichroism in the vicinity of anti-crossings with leaky orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes in the cladding. This arises because the anti-crossings for left and right circularly polarized core modes occur at slightly different wavelengths.
