Abstract

The invention, which relates to the technical field of special optical fibers and optical fiber communication, discloses a grapheme-coated side-polishing double-core photonic crystal fiber polarization converter. The polarization converter based on the side-polishing double-core photonic crystal fiber comprises a cladding structure formed by multi-layer air holes (11), two fiber cores (12) and (13), central air holes (14) and (15) arranged near the fiber cores, and two elliptical air holes (16). The background material (17) of the cladding layer is made of a silicon dioxide material. The fiberis polished to form a D-shaped structure and thus the central air hole (14) is opened and the inner surface of the central air hole is coated with a composite layer structure with a graphene layer and a polymethyl methacrylate layer (PMMA). After voltage loading and adjustment of the chemical potential of the coated graphene layer, the output optical power of different polarization directions ischanged and thus a certain extinction ratio is reached to realize polarization conversion. The converter having characteristics of all-fiber structure, small size, high polarization extinction ratio and the like can be applied to the all-optical communication field.

Description

[0001] The invention relates to the technical fields of special optical fiber and optical fiber communication, and discloses a graphene-coated side-polished dual-core photonic crystal fiber polarization converter. Background technique [0002] Polarizing beam splitters and polarization converters are important components in integrated optoelectronic circuits. The incident light can be split into two orthogonally polarized lights by a polarizing beam splitter and output from two different output ports. The light beam passes through the polarization converter, which can produce a 90° conversion of the polarization mode of its output light. Polarization beam splitters and polarization converters are widely used in optical fiber communication, optical fiber sensing, photoelectric detection and other fields. [0003] As a microstructure fiber, photonic crystal fiber (PCF) has the advantages of controllable birefringence, low loss, large mode field area and infinite single-mode tra...
