AbstractBased on the simple power series formulation of fundamental mode developed by Chebyshev formalism in the low V region, we prescribe analytical expression for effective core area of graded index fiber. Taking step and parabolic index fibers as examples, we estimate the effective core areas as well as effective refractive index for different normalized frequencies (V number) having low values. We also show that our estimations match excellently with the available exact results. The concerned predictions by our method require little computation. Thus, this simple but accurate formalism will be user friendly for the system engineers.

"Advance design and day to day up-gradation of communication system is the requirement of international telecommunication. The optical communication systems involve the effective fiber coupling or splicing to meet the need of long communication channel. When the studies on both the intensive and extensive properties of optical fiber are exploring new research horizons, the effectiveness of such systems can be calibrated with transmission parameters like transmitted fractional power, which is a function of ‘spot size’ as well. Our study of fiber junctions based on fundamental parameters like wavelength, fiber profile index etc. has touched some unrevealed areas and explored some interesting results. The profile index of optical fiber has received less attention compared to other structural parameters of optical fiber but our study at important wavelengths for different profiles has shown that the less-used fiber profiles has some interesting premier outcomes, which can introduce some significant impact on optical fiber based system design and engineering. We have observed almost frequency or wavelength independent transmitted fractional power around the most used 1.55 micrometer wavelengths at some rarely used fiber profile index. Our study predicts the best and worst fiber profiles for transmitted fractional power (T ), at the same time, we have observed the fiber profile index independent region for a band of ‘T’ values. The reporting and its approach are found to be premier in this field. So, our work is reporting a comparison of effective fiber-to-fiber coupling, based on fiber profile index of different fibers. It is also giving a clear view of the wavelength dependency of effective fiber coupling for different fibers having wide range of graded fiber profiles."

AbstractWe present investigation of Petermann I and II spot sizes in the presence of Kerr nonlinearity. Our study is based on the simple power series formulation for fundamental modal field of single-mode-graded index fiber developed by Chebyshev formalism. Based on the said power series expression in the absence of nonlinearity, analytical expressions of the said spot sizes can be prescribed. Using the analytical expressions of the said spot sizes in the absence of nonlinearity, we apply iterative technique in order to predict the said propagation characteristics in presence of Kerr nonlinearity. In this context, we choose some typical single-mode step and parabolic index fibers. We show that the our results agree excellently with the exact results which can be obtained by using rigorous finite-element technique. This leads to verification of accuracy of our simple technique. Moreover, evaluation of the concerned parameters by our formalism involves little computation. Thus, our method provides an accurate but simple alternative to the existing rigorous methods in this context. Accordingly, this novel and simple formalism will prove user friendly to the system engineers in the field non linear optics.

ABSTRACTHigh-bandwidth graded-index (GI) polymer optical fiber (POF) and single-mode POF with good mechanical properties were successfully obtained by our interfacial-gel polymerization technique. The bandwidth of the GI POF is about 1 GHz · km which is two hundred times larger than that of the conventional step-index (SI) POF. The minimum attenuation of transmission is 56 dB/km at 688-nm wavelength and 94 dB/km at 780-nm wavelength. The single-mode POF in which the core diameter was 3–15 μ m and the attenuation of transmission was 200 dB/km at 652-nm wavelength was successfully obtained for the first time.
