Single-mode Fibers

Single-Mode Fibers is a type of optical fiber designed to carry light signals along a single propagation path, distinguished from multimode fibers by its narrow core diameter that permits only one mode of light transmission, thereby minimizing modal dispersion and enabling high-bandwidth, long-distance communication.
