SINGLE-POLARISATION SINGLE-MODE GUIDANCE IN STRESS-INDUCED BIREFRINGENCE FIBRES WITH LOSSY STRESS-APPLYING SECTIONS

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

When the refractive index of the stress-applying sections in a stress-induced birefringence fiber lies between the effective indices of the two polarization modes, the polarization mode with lower effective index is essentially guided by the stress-applying sections. Single-polarization guidance can thus be achieved by introducing absorption loss in the stress-applying sections.
