Abstract

In this study, a novel photonic crystal fiber (PCF) polarization filter has been designed. To resonate the surface plasma mode with the core mode, gold is selectively filled in the air holes. Using numerical simulations based on the finite element method, the influence of structural parameters on the filter is analyzed, and a set of rules for designing the PCF polarization filter is determined. The numerical simulation shows that the peak loss in the y-polarization direction at 1.31 μm reaches 1209.57 dB/cm, whereas the peak loss in the x-polarization is close to zero. Working at 1310 nm in the communication band, a new type of PCF is designed using these characteristics.
