Optica Publishing Group, 2003. https://opg.optica.org/abstract.cfm?uri=OFC-2003-WJ1.http://hdl.handle.net/11603/38981Optical Fiber Communication Conference 2003, Atlanta, Georgia United StatesWe show that the differential group delay of randomly birefringent periodically spun fibers, depends strongly on the model used for the birefringence. Overly simple models may overestimate the benefit of spin in reducing polarization mode dispersion.2 pagesen-USThis item is likely protected under Title 17 of the U.S. Copyright Law.
