and thus&#44; an input field coupled to the MMF can reproduce a single self-image or multiple-images &#40;pseudo-images&#41; at regular intervals along the MMF waveguide due to constructive interference between all guided modes&#46; In order to obtain a self-image&#44; the phase difference between all guided modes has to be an integer multiple of 2&#960; so that all modes interfere in phase and the input field can be reproduced at the end of the MMF section&#46;
