Understanding dispersion in monomode fibers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The dispersion characteristics of monomode fibers may be crucial to their use, particularly at long wavelengths. Some methods of tailoring dispersion, for example, adjustment of step-index equivalent parameters and the W fiber, are known, but attempts to produce more general solutions are hampered by the difficulty of seeing which features of the index profile affect dispersion. The purpose of this work is to answer this need. It Is not Intended to provide an accurate numerical method for computation, although it should be noted that even in a simple Gaussian field, form accuracy is comparable with other approximations.
