Abstract
We present useful expressions predicting the filling time of gaseous species inside photonic crystal fibers. Based on the theory of diffusion, this gas-filling model can be applied to any given fiber geometry or length by calculating diffusion coefficients. This was experimentally validated by monitoring the filling process of acetylene gas in several fiber samples of various geometries and lengths. The measured filling times agree well, within
