Question: Problem # 2 : An optical fiber with a core diameter 8 microns and cladding diameter 1 2 5 microns. The refractive index of core

Problem #2: An optical fiber with a core diameter 8 microns and cladding diameter 125
microns. The refractive index of core is 1.449 and the refractive index of cladding is 1.445.
The operational wavelength is 1.55 micron. Please calculate
(a) Acceptance angle
(b) Numerical aperture of the fiber
(c) Is this single mode or multimode? Why?
Problem #3: An optical fiber with a core diameter 50 microns and cladding diameter 125
microns. The refractive index of core is 1.449 and the refractive index of cladding is 1.445.
The operational wavelength is 1.55 micron. Please estimate the number of modes in this
optical fiber.
