It can be a source of dispersion, usually less than .5 ps/nm/km. The effect is to cause a circular or elliptical polarisation to form

Dispersion resulting from the birefringent properties of fibre is called “Polarisation Mode Dispersion” (PMD).第七頁，共49頁。 The shape (profile) of the fibre has a very significant effect on the group velocity. This is because the amount that the fields overlap bet

The longer the wavelength the further the the electromagnetic wave extends into the cladding. since a greater proportion of the wave at shorter wavelengths is confined within the core, the shorter wavelengths “see” a higher RI than do longer
