Microbending effects in singlemode optical fibers: investigation and novel applications
<p>Microbends are axial distortions on the optical fiber that have a spatial wavelength small enough to effect coupling between guided and radiation or cladding modes. The magnitude of this wavelength-dependent coupling is a function of the nature and the number of microdefonnations. Since the...
