Popis: A polarization splitter based on dual-core photonic crystal fiber (PCF) with tellurite glass was proposed. The birefringence of the splitter was improved by introducing elliptical air holes. The full vector finite element method is used to analyze the impacts of structural parameters on the coupling length. The results show that the elliptical size is reasonably changed, the extinction ratio can reach 107.21 dB at the wavelength of 1.55 μ m , the length of the splitter is 89.05 μ m , and the bandwidth is 150 nm when the extinction ratio is more than 20 dB. Besides, we also compare the characteristics of tellurite glass and silica glass photonic crystal fiber polarization beam splitters with the same structural parameters.
