M. Badolo et P. Emplit, PREDICTION OF CLOSE-TO-ZERO MODAL DISPERSION OVER A WIDE-RANGE OF WAVELENGTHS IN SINGLY CLAD MULTIMODE FIBERS, Journal of lightwave technology, 15(1), 1997, pp. 121-124
A numerical analysis of second- and third-order modal dispersions in s
ingly clad multimode optical fibers is presented. We show that, becaus
e of their cutoff properties, singly clad multimode optical fibers cou
ld provide modal dispersions characteristics similar to those observed
in multiclad single mode fibers.
