The application discloses a polarization
extinction ratio testing device for large-core
polarization maintaining optical fiber, and is characterized by comprising the following parts: a non-coherent polarized
light source, a polarization maintaining mode field adapter, a focusing
coupling system, a cladding
light filter, a collimating mirror, a
polarimeter and a power meter; the non-coherent polarized
light source outputs high-quality non-coherent polarization maintaining linear polarized light, the light enters the large-core
polarization maintaining optical fiber to be tested through the polarization maintaining mode field adapter and the focusing
coupling system, and is emitted under the action of the cladding
light filter, the energy of the output parallel light of the polarization maintaining
fiber core is concentrated through the
collimator, and the light enters the power meter through the
polarimeter. The application uses a non-coherent
light source as a testing light source, thereby reducing the
coupling between
modes, simultaneously uses a mode field adapter to control the mode of the completely polarized
signal light to be a base mode state input, simultaneously matches the mode field, reduces the component of high-order
modes, thereby cooperatively reduces the coherent superposition between different
modes, thereby stabilizes the
power test results under different polarization states, makes the
extinction ratio test results stable and accurate, and has high consistency.
