摘要
Elliptically polarising optical fiber has been fabricated. measurements show an extinction of the lossy mode relative to the transmitted mode of around 10dB/m. The preform is spun during drawing and the ellipticity of the transmitted polarisation state is as expected from the measured beat length of the the unspun fiber and the pitch length of the spun fiber. This fiber is expected to be useful for interferometric or laser-based electric current sensing, and perhaps in other applications for an in-line polariser.
