Wavelength of minimum dispersion in step-index monomode fibers: accuracy of evaluation.
The wavelengths of minimum dispersion in step-index monomode fibers are evaluated quite rigorously. These results are compared with those obtained when certain approximations used by several authors are introduced into the course of the calculation. Furthermore, a comparison is made between the wavelengths of minimum dispersion obtained when dispersive data measured by different authors are used for the evaluation.
