Abstract
The correspondence between the scalar modes LP and the nearly degenerate true vectorial modes in circular two-layer fibers is well established. For example, LP/sub 21/ corresponds to a combination of EH/sub 11/ and HE/sub 31/, while LP/sub 02/ is composed only of HE/sub 12/. For the multilayer fibers, inversion of the correspondences for certain modes can occur. We illustrate this inversion for a three-layer fiber. We propose a method permitting to distinguish the hybrid modes HE/sub /spl nu//spl mu// and EH/sub /spl nu//spl mu// in such fibers and we show the possibility of major taper-induced power coupling between these modes in SMF-28 fiber.
