TL;DR: In this paper, an externally controlled mode coupling was observed in a 0.7-km optical waveguide fiber resulting in a significant pulse narrowing, and the method of mode coupling generation requires that care be exercised in any mode coupling measurement.
Abstract: Externally controlled mode coupling was observed in a 0.7-km optical waveguide fiber resulting in a significant pulse narrowing. The method of mode coupling generation requires that care be exercised in any mode coupling measurement. Observations on a 3-km waveguide failed to show evidence of mode coupling, allowing the possibility of practical external control.
