                    In this article, Hill Climbing (HC) and Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) are integrated to produce a hybrid intelligent algorithm for design of endlessly Single Mode Photonic Crystal Fibers (SMPCFs) structure with desired properties over the C communication band. In order to analyzing the fiber components, Finite Difference Frequency Domain (FDFD) solver is applied. In addition, a special cost function which simultaneously includes the confinement loss, dispersion and its slope is considered in the proposed optimization algorithm. The results revealed that the proposed method is a powerful tool for solving this optimization problem. The optimized PCF exhibits an ultra-low confinement loss and low dispersion at 1.55 µm wavelength with a nearly zero dispersion slope over the C communication band.
