Summary: 
Holey Fiber (HF) technology has progressed rapidly in recent years and has resulted in the development of a wide range of optical fibers with unique and highly useful optical properties including endlessly single-mode guidance, and high optical nonlinearity. In this paper the state-of-the-art HF technology for all-optical signal processing devices is reviewed from a perspective of possible application for telecommunications.
