A theoretical formulation of the long-period grating sensor is implemented with respect to efficient refractive indices of core and cladding. The obtained result is utilized further for determination of ERIs of core and cladding using graphical analytical method and multilayer fiber
geometry. ERI values of primary guided core, bi and tri layer fiber geometry using MATLAB software. In the present paper effective refractive index of core and cladding for the two and three layers have been investigated. The cladding modes have also been calculated using Erdogan’s proposed
three-layer geometry as well as two-layer graphical solution method. We have compared both the techniques, discussed the limitations of graphical solution method and the benefits of three-layer geometry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
