Abstract

The invention provides an inner wall fused and embedded single-mode polarization maintaining fiber grating. The fiber contains an eccentric fiber core (1), an air hole (3) is in the center of the fiber, one part of the eccentric fiber core is embedded into a cladding (2) with lower refractive index, the other part of the eccentric fiber core is suspended in the air hole (3), and the eccentric fiber core is engraved with a grating (4). The fiber prepared by a preparation method for the inner wall fused and embedded single-mode polarization maintaining fiber grating has a simple structure and easy preparation, and a grating write-in method is simple and has large tunable property. Because of good polarization maintaining property, the manufactured inner wall fused and embedded single-mode polarization maintaining fiber grating has large bi-modal interval and good thermal stability, provides a new structural device for avoiding temperature-stress coupling, and provides a new path for active and passive devices related with polarization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber grating, and also relates to a preparation method of the optical fiber grating, in particular to an inner-wall fusion-embedded single-mode polarization-maintaining optical fiber grating and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Polarization Maintaining Optical Fiber (PMF, Polarization Maintaining Optical Fiber) is widely used in advanced coherent optical communications, fiber optic gyroscopes, hydrophones, fiber optic sensors, etc. due to its strong polarization maintaining ability for linearly polarized light. Key components in missiles and aircraft.
