Abstract :
High birefringence of the order of 2*10/sup -3/ has been predicted in silicate microstructured fibers with rectangular air capillaries ordered in a square grid. With sensor applications in mind, the rectangular geometry was chosen to increase the photonic crystal fiber sensitivity to deformation. The numerical simulations were made with full-vector mode solver using the biorthonormal basis method and confirmed using 3D FDTD technique software.
