Concepts in Waveguide Theory,ion, diffraction and interference. The focus is on the important concepts, and although in this chapter we only look at conventional fibres we examine the concepts with sufficient clarity to ensure that they will be correctly applied to microstructured fibres. We also discuss whether a concept has a

The Modelling and Design of Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres,s for naming modes. The ideas behind the algorithms for calculating modes are then discussed but detailed results available in the literature are not reproduced here. It is impossible to be comprehensive or even perfectly balanced when covering such a wide field. Some references to both commercial a

ABOUT

Fabrication of Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres,rm containing a large-scale version of the structure desired in the fibre, followed by heating and drawing of the preform to produce the final fibre. Three issues soon emerge however when trying to turn this simple two-step process into a reality.

Effects of Drawing on the Microstructure,(3-D) and time dependent behaviour. This complexity is further complicated if the materials used exhibit significant nonlinear viscoelastic behaviour, while the very nature of an mPOF means that its fabrication involves the substantial deformation of a (potentially large) number of 3-D free surfaces

Graded-Index Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres,n. The latter is usually addressed by using a graded-index (GI) to equalise the group velocities of the fast and slow modes. While most GI fibres use differences in chemical composition to produce the index gradient, it is also possible to use a graded microstructure. Such fibres (denoted GImPOF) di

Bragg and Long Period Gratings in mPOF,operation. Gratings are a highly developed research area, and no attempt has been made to review the whole field. Excellent reviews are available, including [Othonos and Kalli 1999, Kashyap 1999]. The two most relevant related areas however are described here: gratings in MOFs and POFs. This work is
