An optical fibre for transmission of light at a predetermined wavelength, the fibre having a core region, an inner cladding region and an outer cladding region, the inner cladding region having spaced apart voids, at least some of which are at least partly filled with a fluid substance to modify a refractive index in the cross-section of the fibre. The fluid substance may be introduced by preparing and fixing the fibre ends, identifying the voids to be filled and infusing the fluid therein while masking openings in the remaining voids. By selective heating of parts of the fibre, the location of the fluid substance in the void may be controlled to extend over only a fraction of the length of a void that extends the length by the fibre.
