Modeling the evanescent wave and mode interactions of different fiber taper profile in microstructured optical fiber / Siti Noraina Sanusidin

Single mode fiber (SMF) is one of the most broadly used groups of optical fiber in fiber sensing applications. In optical fiber, single mode fiber (SMF), multimode fiber (MMF) are contained within a pure silica or glass. Photonic crystal fiber (PCFs) is a microstructure optical fibers or holey fiber...
