Abstract

A novel single-polarization single-mode double-ring hollow-core anti-resonant fiber with two single-polarization regions (1545-1553 nm and 1591-1596 nm) is proposed. Single-polarization guidance is achieved by coupling a polarized fundamental mode and silica mode by using different tube thicknesses. Specifically, when the wavelength is 1550 nm, only a single x-polarized fundamental mode with a low loss of 0.04 dB/m is propagated by a polarization extinction ratio of 17662 and minimum higher-order mode extinction ratio of 393 by optimizing the structural parameters. Furthermore, this fiber also exhibits high-performance bend resistance. The x-polarized FM loss is as low as 0.11 dB/m with single-polarization single-mode guidance when the proposed fiber was bent at a bend radius of 8 cm toward the x-direction.
