Abstract This paper estimates transmission coefficient at the splice of single-mode dispersion shifted trapezoidal and dispersion flattened graded and step W fibers in presence as well as in absence of Kerr nonlinearity. We restrict our analysis for both angular and transverse offsets only since splices are highly tolerant in respect of longitudinal mismatch. Here, we apply method of iteration involving Chebyshev formalism in order to take care of Kerr nonlinearity. The concerned investigation requires very little computation. It has been shown that our results match excellently with the exact results both in absence as well as in presence of Kerr nonlinearity. Considering that prediction of exact results in presence of Kerr nonlinearity requires application of rigorous finite element technique, our formalism in this context can be treated as a simple alternative to the existing method. Thus, this user friendly method generates ample scope for many useful applications in the field of nonlinear photonics involving such kinds of fiber.

AbstractBased on the simple power series formulation of fundamental mode developed by Chebyshev formalism in the low V region, we prescribe analytical expression for effective core area of graded index fiber. Taking step and parabolic index fibers as examples, we estimate the effective core areas as well as effective refractive index for different normalized frequencies (V number) having low values. We also show that our estimations match excellently with the available exact results. The concerned predictions by our method require little computation. Thus, this simple but accurate formalism will be user friendly for the system engineers.

AbstractWe present investigation of Petermann I and II spot sizes in the presence of Kerr nonlinearity. Our study is based on the simple power series formulation for fundamental modal field of single-mode-graded index fiber developed by Chebyshev formalism. Based on the said power series expression in the absence of nonlinearity, analytical expressions of the said spot sizes can be prescribed. Using the analytical expressions of the said spot sizes in the absence of nonlinearity, we apply iterative technique in order to predict the said propagation characteristics in presence of Kerr nonlinearity. In this context, we choose some typical single-mode step and parabolic index fibers. We show that the our results agree excellently with the exact results which can be obtained by using rigorous finite-element technique. This leads to verification of accuracy of our simple technique. Moreover, evaluation of the concerned parameters by our formalism involves little computation. Thus, our method provides an accurate but simple alternative to the existing rigorous methods in this context. Accordingly, this novel and simple formalism will prove user friendly to the system engineers in the field non linear optics.

AbstractThis paper reports simple but accurate analytical expressions of group delay and modal dispersion parameters for single-mode graded index fibers over a wide range of V numbers. The formulation employs power series expression for the fundamental modal field of graded index fiber derived by Chebyshev formalism. Choosing some typical step, parabolic and triangular index fibers as examples in our present study, we use the prescribed formulations to estimate group delay and modal dispersion parameters of those fibers both in presence and absence of Kerr nonlinearity. Iterative technique is applied for prediction of concerned propagation parameters in presence of Kerr nonlinearity. Our results show excellent agreement with the numerical exact ones both in absence and presence of Kerr nonlinearity. The exact results in case of Kerr nonlinearity are obtained using cumbersome finite element method. The execution of our accurate formalism involves little computation and is thus user friendly for technologists and researchers working in the field of nonlinear optical engineering.

Abstract A new technique is presented for computing very useful propagation parameters like effective core area and effective index of refraction of mono-mode dispersion shifted and dispersion flattened fibers both in the presence and in the absence of Kerr nonlinearity. The technique involves application of accurate but simple expressions for modal fields developed by Chebyshev formalism. The study of the influence of Kerr nonlinearity on the aforementioned parameters, however, requires the application of the method of iteration. For the purpose of such investigation, in linear as well as nonlinear region, we take some typically used dispersion shifted and dispersion flattened fibers and we show that the results found by our simple formalism are in excellent agreement with those obtained by using complex finite element method. Further, the necessary evaluation by our simple method needs very less computations. Thus, our formalism generates ample opportunity for applications in many areas in the field of nonlinear optics.

Abstract The power series formulation for modal field of single-mode graded index fibers by Chebyshev technique has worked excellently in predicting accurately different propagation characteristics in simple fashion. Here we develop a simple iterative method involving Chebyshev formalism to predict the modal field of single-mode graded index fiber in the presence of Kerr-type nonlinearity. Taking step and parabolic index fibers as typical examples, we show that our results match excellently with the available exact results obtained vigorously. Thus, the reported technique can be considered as an accurate alternative to the existing cumbersome techniques. Accordingly, this formalism will be beneficial to the technologies for evaluation of modal noise in single-mode Kerr-type nonlinear graded index fibers.
