Abstract

Spun elliptically birefringent fibre has been fabricated by spinning the preform of a highly linearly birefringent photonic crystal fibre (PCF) during the drawing process. The resulting spun highly birefringent (SHi-Bi) PCF offers sensitivity to magnetic fields for current measurements with greatly reduced temperature dependence in comparison with conventional spun stress birefringence fibres. The ellipticity of the birefringence has been measured and temperature independence has been demonstrated.
