Abstract
In order to design birefringent holey fiber with beat-length independent of wavelength, an asymmetric structure is introduced to reduce its wavelength-sensitivity. The influence of structural parameters on the modal birefringence is calculated and analyzed. After optimizing the parameters, a flat dispersion curve of beat-length is obtained. The beat-length changes from 89.8 mm to 91.0 mm in wavelength range from 1.1 μm, to 1.7 μm, and its relative variation is 1.38%. If this fiber is made into zero-order quarter wave plate, the phase delay can be easily controlled in (90±1)°.
