FAQ

What is Delta Parameter?

Delta Parameter refers to the phase shift experienced by light as it passes through a thin optical element, such as a thin lens or a thin layer of a material. The delta parameter is often used to describe the optical path difference (OPD) or phase delay introduced by the optical element and is represented as Δ = (η_core^2-η_clad^2)/(η_core^2) or Delta Parameter = (Refractive Index of Core^2-Refractive Index of Cladding^2)/(Refractive Index of Core^2). The Refractive Index of Core is defined as how the light travels through that medium. It defines how much a light ray can bend when it enters from one medium to the other & Refractive Index of Cladding is the measure of bending of a ray of light when passing from one medium(surrounding) into another.

How to calculate Delta Parameter?

Delta Parameter refers to the phase shift experienced by light as it passes through a thin optical element, such as a thin lens or a thin layer of a material.
