Theoretical research on light propagation in W-type single-mode fiber

Abstract

We give the characteristic equation of a W-type fiber by solving Maxwell’s equations along with boundary conditions at the interfaces. The cutoff condition of the fundamental mode is examined, and a novel W-type fiber working in S-band is designed.
