Polymer optical microstructured fiber with birefringence induced by stress-applying elements
Polymer optical microstructured fiber with birefringence induced by stress-applying elements is a scholarly work by Pawel Mergo, published in 2014 in ''Optics Letters''. The main subjects of the publication include Polarization-maintaining optical fiber, optics, Microstructured optical fiber, cladding, materials science, hard-clad silica optical fiber, optical fiber, fiber-optic communication, plastic-clad silica fiber, fiber-optic sensor, polystyrene, birefringence, photonic-crystal fiber, all-silica fiber, polymer, and fiber. The authors report on the fabrication of a birefringent microstructured PMMA fiber with polystyrene stress-applying elements located in the solid part of the cladding.
