Abstract

The invention relates to a grinding type optical fiber polarizer based on a photonic crystal fiber, which comprises photonic crystal fiber and a fixed plate. The grinding type optical fiber polarizer is characterized in that one side of the photonic crystal fiber is grounded, and the ground part of the photonic crystal fiber is adhered to the fixed plate. The length of the ground part of the photonic crystal fiber is 4-5cm, and the grinding depth is 48-56 mum. The structure formed through grinding one side of the photonic crystal fiber is asymmetric, and the structural asymmetry causes the leakage of one polarization component, and the other polarization component is still transmitted in the fiber core, thereby realizing the polarization. Since only the photonic crystal fiber of 4-5cm is needed, the whole polarizer has the advantages of convenient manufacture, compact structure and small size. In addition, the polarizer has a high extinction ratio and stable performance, and can be widely applied in the fiber optical communication and fiber optical sensor technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of optical fiber polarization devices, and relates to a ground optical fiber polarization device based on photonic crystal fibers. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of optical fiber communication and optical fiber sensing technology, the polarization state of light is becoming more and more important to the system and components. As an important branch of polarization devices, optical fiber polarization devices play a unique role. Fiber optic polarizers are favored due to their small size, light weight, low insertion loss, high extinction ratio, and strong compatibility with fiber optic systems. Fiber optic polarizers are widely used in passive devices such as optical isolators, optical circulators, optical switches, and optical modulators. In the optical device test system, the fiber polarizer can cooperate with other devices to obtain stable and flexible test conditions and realize...
