Modal Analysis and Dispersion Curves of a Bragg Fiber Having Asymmetric Loop Boundary
By
Progress In Electromagnetics Research, Vol. 87, 117-130, 2008
Abstract
An analysis of the modal propagation characteristics of a Bragg fiber having asymmetric loop boundary is made, using a simple matrix method. The boundary condition is replaced by matrix equation andthe modal eigen value equation is obtained under weak guidance condition. The computed results are shown in the form of dispersion curves and cutoff frequencies andare compared with the dispersion curves of a standard Bragg fiber having circular core cross section. It is seen that the proposed Bragg fiber with a small number of claddings (two of four) shows comparable or even better performance than the standard Bragg fiber with respect to a few mode-guidance properties.
