편광유지 광섬유의 한 종류인 저 복굴절 광섬유의 고유복굴절 및 자기광학 효과에 의한 편광 특성을 이론적으로 해석하고 실험하였다. 일반 단일모드 광섬유에 비해 편광유지 특성이 양호하게 나타났으며, 실험결과 본 실험에 사용된 광섬유(길이: 68.28cm, 163.72cm, 139.52cm)의 편광도는 0.818이상으로 특정되었다. 입력 편광각에 대한 출력 편광각의 변화는 $9^{\circ}$이하로 측정되었다. 자계 측정 실험결과 10kAT까지의 자계 강도를 선형적으로 측정할 수 있었으며 최대 오차는 4kTA에서 1.95%였다.

Based on Faraday effect, the variation of current flowing through the conductor can be encoded as that of azimuth angle of light polarization propagating through the fiber coil wound onto the conductor. The amount of current can be obtained by measuring the variation of the light intensity transformed from that of the azimuth angle through a polarization analyzer. In this paper we propose a fiber-optic current sensor system that employs a fiber polarization analyzer as a sensor interrogation device. The fiber polarization analyzer was prepared by inscribing a long-period fiber grating on a high birefringent fiber. At the fixed wavelength of 1522.5 nm, the fabricated fiber device has the polarization extinction ratio of more than 25 dB. The measurement of large current up to 600 Arms was accomplished based on a simple fiber interrogation device and the measurement output of the sensor system showed a good linearity.

In this paper we propose a wavelength-switchable fiber ring laser that employs a polarization-dependent fiber band stop filter. The fiber filter was fabricated by inscribing a long-period fiber grating on a high birefringent fiber. Dual-wavelength switching operation was accomplished by controlling the rotatable linear polarizer which rotated the polarization plane of the light circulating through the fiber laser cavity. The amplitude variation of both laser lines was measured to be less than 0.5 dB and the signal-to-amplified spontaneous emission ratio was more than 55 dB.

This paper presents the joint characteristic function of the first- and second-order polarization-modedispersion (PMD) vectors in installed optical fibers that are almost linearly birefringent. The joint characteristic function is a Fourier transform of the joint probability density function of these PMD vectors. We regard the random fiber birefringence components as white Gaussian processes and use a Fokker-Planck method. In the limit of a large transmission distance, our joint characteristic function agrees with the previous joint characteristic function obtained for highly birefringent fibers. However, their differences can be noticeable for practical transmission distances.

A novel high birefringent polymer terahertz (THz) fiber with a suspended elliptical core is proposed in this paper. The introduction of an elliptical core can enhance asymmetry to realize high mode birefringence, and a large porous outer cladding effectively isolates the core-guided mode from interacting with the surrounding environment. A full-vector finite element method(FEM) is used to analyze the characteristics of the THz fiber. Simulation results show that the suspended elliptical fiber exhibits high mode birefringence on a level of $10^{-2}$ over a wide frequency range, and an extremely large mode birefringence(${\approx}0.06226$) is obtained when ellipticity is 0.2. Moreover, a suspended hollow elliptical core fiber is also discussed for the purpose of lower loss, however high mode birefringence and low relative absorption loss can not coexist in such a kind of fiber.

A polarization-independent multiwavelength-switchable fiber filter is proposed based on a polarization beam splitter and fiber coupler, which can function as a polarization-independent transmission or reflection-type interleaving filter. The proposed filter consists of a polarization beam splitter and a Sagnac birefringence loop composed of a 50:50 coupler, high birefringent fibers, and two quarter-wave plates. In the proposed filter, a transmission-type interleaver with a channel isolation > 18 dB or a reflection-type one with a channel isolation of ${\sim}3$ dB, whose channel spacing and switching displacement were 0.8 and 0.4 nm in common, respectively, could be obtained. A channel interleaving operation could be performed by the proper control of waveplates within the Sagnac birefringence loop.

Stack-and-draw 방법을 사용하여 새로운 구조의 높은 복굴절을 가진 광자 결정 광섬유(highly birefringent photonic crystal fiber, Hi-Bi PCF)를 제작하였다. 제작된 광섬유는 공기구멍으로 구성된 클래딩 외부에 큰 공기구멍을 추가함으로써 광섬유 인출 과정중에 코어와 공기층 클래딩 영역에 비대칭적인 압력이 인가되어 코어가 타원형으로 변형되어 복굴절이 유도된다. 제작된 Hi-Bi PCF의 복굴절은 1550 nm에서 $2.29{\times}10^{-4}$로 측정되었다.

In this paper we fabricated a fiber device composed of cascaded long-period fiber gratings between which a birefringent erbium-doped fiber was inserted and proposed its application as a polarization-controlled interleaved signal gating fiber device. Because the core and cladding modes of the fabricated fiber device have polarization-dependent phase difference due to the birefringence of the erbium-doped fiber, its interference spectrum can be modulated by varying the input polarization.

We propose a highly birefringent and dispersion compensating photonic crystal fiber based on a double line defect core. Using a finite element method (FEM) with a perfectly matched layer (PML), it is demonstrated that it is possible to obtain broadband large negative dispersion of about -400 to -427 ps/(nm.km) covering all optical communication bands (from O to U band) and to achieve the dispersion coefficient of -425 ps/(nm.km) at 1.55μm. In addition, the highest birefringence of the proposed PCF at 1.55 μm is 1.92 × 10^-2 and the value of birefringence from the wavelength of 1.26 to 1.8 μm (covering O to U bands) is about 1.8 × 10^-2 to 1.92 × 10^-2. It is confirmed that from the simulation results, the confinement loss of the proposed PCF is always less than 10^-3 dB/km at 1.55 μm with seven fiber rings of air holes in the cladding.

Swelling behaviors of Lyocell and Polynosic fibers are investigated by measuring fiber sizes in ferric sodium tartrate complex (FeTNa) and NaOH solution. They showed an anisotropic swelling behavior, i.e., a large expansion in a radius and small shrinking in a longitudinal direction. Birefringent structure was maintained in Lyocell fibers in the swollen state but not in Polynosic fibers for both solvent systems.
