Abstract :
We investigated the PANDA type polarisation-maintaining optical fibers which were drawn VAD synthesized preforms with stress-applying parts (SAP) by VAD method. The fabricated fiber has 1.3 mm beat length in the 633 nm region, and -25 dB/km crosstalk. So this fiber can be used in precision gyroscope system.
