Resource Overview
Detailed Documentation
This package includes 13 programs that simulate various modes of light propagation in optical fibers. The simulations cover multiple physical phenomena including light refraction, reflection, as well as fiber attenuation and dispersion effects. These programs employ finite-difference and beam propagation methods to numerically solve Maxwell's equations, providing visualizations of electromagnetic field distributions. The simulations serve as valuable educational tools for understanding fiber optic communication principles, featuring parameter customization interfaces for different fiber geometries and material properties. Students and researchers can modify core/cladding dimensions and refractive indices to observe corresponding mode pattern variations. These programs are designed to enhance comprehension of photonics concepts through interactive numerical experiments, offering insights into single-mode and multi-mode propagation characteristics.
