Abstract
This article systematically designs and theoretically investigates a highly birefringent photonic crystal fiber (HB-PCF) for reducing the effect of polarization mode dispersion in high-speed optical communication system. To achieve a high modal birefringence in the proposed HB-PCF, four types of HB-PCF were designed by adding some birefringence-enhancing factors step by step in sequence. Ultimately, as per the simulation results, in the condition of single-mode operation, the numeric values of modal birefringence and confinement loss of the proposed HB-PCF is about 21.85 × 10− 3 and 0.47 dB/km at the habitual wavelength λ = 1.55 µm of optical-fiber communications.
