A hollow-core antiresonant fiber (HC-ARF) with nested supporting rings (NSRs) has a fiber structure that includes from the inside out a fiber core, a first silica antiresonant ring (SARR), a first air antiresonant ring (AARR), a second SARR, a second AARR and an external silica wall. The fiber structure further includes a first NSR within the first AARR and a second NSR within the second AARR. The HC-ARF with NSRs has advantages and benefits of low confined loss (CL), large bandwidth, simple structure and very good bending characteristics. Therefore, the application fields of HC-ARF are greatly expanded.
