S
It is designed to guide light waves along the length of the fiber with
the help of successive total internal reflection from side walls of the fiber.
INNERMOST REGION:
It is the light guiding region called core with refractive index n1.
MIDDLE REGION:
OUTERMOST REGION:
It protects the core and cladding from moisture, dust, abrasion and also
give mechanical strength to fiber.
OR
´The paths along which the waves are in phase inside the fiber called
modes.µ
=wavelength.
Axial ray that travels along the axis of the fiber is called
zero-order ray.
Nm = V2
GLASS FIBER
Sio2 is the basic material for make the glass which is easily
available on earth. Sio2 has a refractive index of 1.458 at 850 nm (8500 A) to produce
two similar materials that have slightly different refractive index for the core and
cladding. We can change the refractive index of the glass by dopping other material
for this basic material SiO2 is dopped by Germenia (Geo2) or pentoxide (). So that
refractive index is increased and such material is used as core and pure silicaas
cladding basic material (pure silica) dopped. Germenia (Geo2) OR pentoxide (P2O5)
=core material.
