We found the beam quality factor M2 of the fundamental mode as a function of wavelength is U-shaped in the working photonic bandgap[PBG]of an all-solid PBG fiber[AS-PBGF]for the first time,to the best of our knowledge,and our sim-ulation results also match well with the phenomenon.The normal band that is near the high-frequency edge of the third PBG integrates the lowest M2 and single-mode operation simultaneously,while the other two edge regions suffer from anoma-lous variation of M2 versus wavelength.The general applicability of this finding can be further extended to other PBGs and also other representative structures in the AS-PBGF field.
