Prediction of Fundamental Modal Field for Graded Index Fiber in the Presence of Kerr Nonlinearity
-
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.
