Thus, different wavelengths from the same source travel at different speeds. This yields pulse spreading. This is waveguide dispersion. 7 Waveguide Dispersion Since n1 and n2 also vary with wavelength, material dispersion exists in addition to waveguide dispersion. The total dispersive pulse spread is the sum of the two. That is: ? ? ? ? ?? ????? gMML/? 因為材料色散 M有可能為負值(例如在石英玻
