Abstract

A nondestructive technique for determining the refractive indices of the core and the cladding of step index optical fibers is presented. This method involves diffraction of plane wave from an optical fiber and application the iterative method on Fresnel-Kirchhoff integral, the refractive indices of the core and the clad obtained by this method are in good agreement with the results of other techniques.
