heal.abstract	A circular optical fiber consisting of an inhomogeneous nonlinear core bounded by a linear cladding medium is considered here. In this case, the calculation of the nonlinear modes is of practical importance because of the joint effects of nonlinearity and inhomogeneity on the field concentration and the achievable optical confinement. Numerical results indicate that the combination of this type of inhomogeneity along with the characteristics of nonlinearity may play a significant role towards the optical confinement in the core.	en
