Popis: Different applications, including interferometers, gyroscopes, and frequency combs, require a single polarized light transmission by maintaining this property against the environmental perturbation. As a new type of polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber, a biaxial PM fiber was fabricated over 30 dB of high polarization extinction ratio (PER) values among two orthogonal axes over a fiber length of 110 m. The PM fiber was manufactured with a combination of an elliptical core and Panda-type geometries. The PER values were demonstrated to be preserved at harsh temperature conditions from −55 °C to +85 °C. The bending loss measurements indicate the biaxial PM fiber has ultra-low bending dependent PER deterioration (
