Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a photonic crystal fiber, in particular to a stress-induced high birefringence ultra-large mode field photonic crystal fiber. Background technique [0002] Conventional circularly symmetric fibers do not maintain the polarization state of the guided modes along their length. Although nominally isotropic, small twists, bends, and other stresses impose unknown and uncontrollable birefringence on the fiber, so the polarization of the fiber output is unpredictable. In the fiber manufacturing process, strong birefringence is deliberately introduced to achieve high birefringence values, making the fiber more controllable to these environmental factors. For traditional polarization maintaining fiber, although its birefringence value can reach higher than 10 -4 The order of magnitude, but its single-mode mode field diameter is too small to meet the requirements of high-power fiber lasers. [0003] Compared with traditional optical f...
