High Birefringent ENZ Photonic Crystal Fibers [PDF]
A novel photonic crystal fiber (PCF) design that has a simple circular air hole configuration is reported that yields a very high birefringence. The enhanced birefringence is achieved by filling a select number of the air holes in its cladding with an epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) material to break the index symmetry of its X- and Y-polarization states ...

Polarization mode dispersion in radio-frequency interferometric embedded fiber-optic sensors [PDF]
The effect of fiber birefringence on the propagation delay in an embedded fiber-optic strain sensor is studied. The polarization characteristics of the sensor are described in terms of polarization mode dispersion through the principal states of ...

Multiple designs with broad applicability for enhancing birefringence in low-loss terahertz HC-ARF
The use of hollow-core anti-resonant fiber (HC-ARF) as a transmission medium for the terahertz (THz) frequency range is attracting increasing attention from researchers. This paper introduces a low-loss, high birefringence anti-resonant fiber.

Thermal Sensitivity of Birefringence in Polarization-Maintaining Hollow-Core Photonic Bandgap Fibers
Polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber is the core sensitive component of a fiber optic gyroscope (FOG); its birefringence temperature stability is crucial for maintaining accuracy. Here, we systematically investigated the structural thermal deformation and

Dual-beam-scan Doppler optical coherence angiography for birefringence-artifact-free vasculature imaging [PDF]
Dual-beam-scan Doppler optical coherence angiography (DB-OCA) enables high-speed, high-sensitivity blood flow imaging. However, birefringence of biological tissues is an obstacle to vasculature imaging.

Temperature and Strain Sensitivities of High-Birefringence Elliptical Fibers [PDF]
We have analyzed and calculated the temperature and strain sensitivities of a high-birefringence double-clad elliptical fiber. We propose a method to minimize these sensitivities without increasing the fiber size or weight; this is achieved by selecting ...
