Abstract:Mode conversion based on adiabatical mode evolution in a two-core configuration is investigated. The configuration can convert all the launching modes to higher-order modes from one port and convert all the launching modes to lower-order modes from another port. Mode conversion between the two degenerated high-order modes is also demonstrated numerically. The mode conversion feature is only dependent on the relationship between the effective mode indices of the two cores in the configuration, which shows the c… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
