Effective Interaction Length in Optical Fiber Design Formulas

Effective Interaction Length used to describe the distance over which light can interact with or propagate through the fiber before certain optical effects become significant. And is denoted by L_eff. Effective Interaction Length is usually measured using the Meter for Length. Note that the value of Effective Interaction Length is always positive.
