We demonstrate by numerical simulation that the general features
of the loss spectrum of photonic crystal fibres (PCF) with a kagome
structure can be explained by simple models consisting of thin concentric
hexagons or rings of glass in air. These easily analysed models provide
increased understanding of the mechanism of guidance in kagome PCF, and
suggest ways in which the high-loss resonances in the loss spectrum may be
shifted.
