cladding mode stripper

cladding mode stripper: A device for converting optical fiber cladding modes to radiation modes; as a result, the cladding modes are removed from the fiber. Note: Often a material such as the fiber coating or jacket having a refractive index equal to or greater than that of the fiber cladding will perform this function.
