Abstract

A simple fabrication method of single polarization optical fibers has been proposed. Core, clad, and jacket layers are deposited in a silica tube. The tube is then collapsed while the inner pressure of the tube is reduced. The core circularity and the jacket ellipticity are controlled by the careful selection of the softening points of core/clad and jacket materials, and the inner pressure. The pressure reduction and the softening points of the constituent glasses play an important role in fabricating single polarization optical fibers.
