  • Abstract
    We have analyzed the temperature dependent birefringence of a polarization maintaining photonic crystal fiber. A temperature dependent birefringence coefficient, dB/dt for a commercially available polarization maintaining photonic crystal fiber was found to be approximately -2.0 times 10-9 /K and can be made smaller.
