  • Abstract
    Polarisation characteristics in long single-mode fibres are investigated. Single-mode fibres used in the experiment have been fabricated by the v.a.d. (vapour-phase axial deposition) method. It was shown from the measurements on a 21 km single-span v.a.d. fibre that the state of polarisation of the incident light beam can be maintained over a long length when the incident plane of polarisation coincides with the major or minor axis of the single-mode optical fibre.
