  • Abstract
    We have performed a detailed study of four different perfluorinated graded index polymer optical fibers issued from two manufacturers. After the description of the test bench that has been set up in order to measure the differential mode delays, we report on the corresponding measurements in time domain and the deduced ones in the frequency domain allowing us to get the optical modal bandwidth.
