چکیده
Absfracf—A modal analysis of the problems of excitation of the dominant mode in ah optical fiber by incident plane waves and Gaussian beams has been carried out, and the results applied to the effect on transmission of misalignment in fiber junctions due to offsets, tilts, and gaps. The results in cases of matched media confirm the accuracy of previous theoretical treatments using the Born approximation, which in turn show good agreement with experimental results. In addition, the modal analysis gives more precise solutions when there is a mismatch of media and makes possible the treatment of some problems to which the Born approximation is not applicable.

Mode-coupling analysis of anisotropic polarization-maintaining fibers.
We analyze the coupling between the fundamental vector modal fields of two parallel polarization-maintaining fibers. An improved coupled-mode theory is employed, which also applies to anisotropic materials. Results for the array-mode-propagation constants are presented as a function of the relative tilt angle between the principal axes of the two fibers.
متن کاملModal Analysis of Holey Fiber Mode - Selective Couplers
Mode Division Multiplexing is currently investigated as a possible way to increase fiber system capacity. With this approach, different modes of the same fiber carry distinct information. One of the problems to be solved in these systems concerns coupling/decoupling of the various modes to/from the same fiber. In this presentation, the mode features of a mode mux/demux based on holey fibers are...
متن کاملCross-correlated imaging of single-mode photonic crystal rod fiber with distributed mode filtering.
Photonic crystal bandgap fibers employing distributed mode filtering design provide near diffraction-limited light outputs, a critical property of fiber-based high-power lasers. Microstructure of the fibers is tailored to achieve single-mode operation at specific wavelength by resonant mode coupling of higher-order modes. We analyze the modal regimes of the fibers having a mode field diameter o...
متن کاملA Zigzag Theory with Local Shear Correction Factors for Semi-Analytical Bending Modal Analysis of Functionally Graded Viscoelastic Circular Sandwich Plates
Free bending vibration analysis of the functionally graded viscoelastic circular sandwich plates is accomplished in the present paper, for the first time. Furthermore, local shear corrections factors are presented that may consider simultaneous effects of the gradual variations of the material properties and the viscoelastic behaviors of the materials, for the first time. Moreover, in contrast ...
متن کاملModal Characteristics of Composite Beams with Single Delamination- A Simple Analytical Technique
In the present research, the effects of delamination size and location on vibration characteristics of laminated composite beams are investigated both analytically and numerically. In the analytical method, the delaminated beam is modeled as four interconnected Euler–Bernoulli beams and the constrained and free mode models are both simulated. The differential stretching and the bending-extensio...
