The rotating planar dielectric waveguide model in wave optics: results for step-index profile optical fibers

After the successful identification of guided rays in an optical fiber with the angular velocity of a hypothetical waveguide circumscribing it, the model of optical fibers as planar dielectric waveguides in rotation is extended to wave optics. A clear relationship between the angular velocity and th...

Description
Summary:After the successful identification of guided rays in an optical fiber with the angular velocity of a hypothetical waveguide circumscribing it, the model of optical fibers as planar dielectric waveguides in rotation is extended to wave optics. A clear relationship between the angular velocity and the phase differences between different wavefronts of one given wave is found for step-index profile optical fibers.
