摘要：

A novel nondestructive technique for rapidly aligning the input state of polarization to a stress-field polarization-maintaining fiber has been implemented using temperature modulation. It can be applied on to a short length of fiber, gives alignment to better than 0. 5 degree , and can identify the fast and slow axes.
