      Dear Friends

      Hope you all will be fine

      Please refer to optiwave tutorial on mode conversion

      Mode Conversion by Fiber Bragg Grating

      In literature, there are many research articles related to mode conversion e.g LP11 mode is converted to LP11a and LP11b.Please tell me what is mode conversion and what are the benefits/advantages associated with this mode conversion?
      Please comment.I am highly obliged
      Regards
      Jawad

      Hello Jawad,
      In the usual case, modes in a waveguide are independent, meaning that the light in one mode will propagate without affecting the light in another mode. The case where light goes from propagation in one mode to propagation in another is exceptional, usually due to some special circumstances, such as a periodic disturbance or possibly an environmental influence. Therefore mode conversion is sometimes the basis for a sensor, making it interesting for practical applications.

      Dear S.Dods
      Thanks a lot for your interest and valuable comment
      If you recall wavelength conversion process in optical communication, then come to my query and let me know is it possible to convert one mode which is data modulated to another mode deliberately????
      regards
