Abstract
The normalised frequency for zero waveguide dispersion of the HE11 mode, called VOD, is highly dependent on profile shape. The more the profile departs from a step, the greater the increase of VOD above the effective single-moded region until, for example, VOD becomes infinite for profiles that fall off at a rate greater than or equal to the parabola.
