The invention discloses an all-
fiber polarizer and a preparation method. According to the
polarizer, acting surfaces and a
metal film are designed on a double-clad
fiber, a stripping area is arranged in the middle of a
coating layer of the
fiber, two acting surfaces are processed on a cladding corresponding to the stripping area, the acting surfaces are symmetrically distributed on the two sides of a fiber core and are parallel to each other, and a layer of
metal film is plated on each acting surface. The preparation method disclosed by the invention comprises the steps of firstly, stripping part of the
coating on the
coating layer; then
grinding the cladding to obtain two acting surfaces which are symmetrical and parallel to each other; secondly, plating a layer of
metal film on the two acting surfaces; and finally, packaging a coating layer stripping area by using a
glass tube. The all-fiber
polarizer provided by the invention can be directly welded with the output end of a polarization-maintaining
fiber laser, greatly improves the
extinction ratio of polarization-maintaining
laser while ensuring the transmission efficiency, can realize
laser single-mode transmission, ensures that the
light beam quality is not degraded, and has the advantages of simple structure, low cost, capability of realizing all-fiber and the like.
