High extinction ratio elliptical core Panda-type polarization-maintaining fiber coil.
OPTICS LETTERS(2021)
Abstract
The polarization-maintaining performance of the traditional Panda-type polarization-maintaining fiber (PMF) coil is significantly affected by winding stress and temperature. Here, we present an elliptical core Panda-type PMF coil based on a fiber that employs both geometric and stress birefringence. The extinction ratio of the elliptical core PMF coil was found to be 20.13 dB at a temperature of 20°C, corresponding to an increase of 3.71 dB compared to the traditional Panda-type PMF coil. In addition, results from distributed polarization cross talk and gyroscope output tests also revealed a low sensitivity of the fiber to stress caused by the winding process and temperature. In summary, the proposed fiber coil has better polarization-maintaining ability compared to conventional coil and is promising for applications in high-precision optical fiber sensors.
