Mode and group velocity dispersion evolution in the tapered region of a single-mode tapered fiber.
We investigate the evolution of the propagation mode and the group velocity dispersion in the taper region and analyze its contribution to the nonlinearity of tapered fibers, which is important for a comprehensive understanding of the light propagation characteristics and the mechanisms supporting the supercontinuum generation in tapered fibers.
