1. Yongmin Jung, Gilberto Brambilla, David J. Richardson. We report the use of a sub-wavelength optical wire (SOW) with a specifically designed transition region as an efficient tool to filter higher-order modes in multimode waveguides. Higher-order modes are effectively suppressed by controlling the transition taper profile and the diameter of the ... [Opt. Express 16, 14661-14667 (2008)] (Read Full Article)
