Abstract :
This work describes the fiber optics, which study the propagation of electromagnetic waves in anisotropic media and use these effects as key components for analyzing the state of polarization. The devices and the various optical waveguides which depend on the anisotropy of optical properties and which are connected with the mechanical voltage in them have been used widely in the basic components of the optical fiber cables. However, during manufacturing some of the optical cables categories, the optical fiber are bent and they are braided around their axis or stacked on a spiral line at normal temperature. As a result, the mechanical voltage appears in the optical fiber with different directions. The anisotropy is either related the presence of the external electrical field or the mechanical voltage. The artificial anisotropy is successfully used in the creation of the anisotropic optical fiber of the self-focus. Such optical fiber allows excluding many inherent lacks, as multimode and single mode optical fiber. The anisotropic material changes the index of refraction changes according to the direction of polarization. The site length depending on transfer parameters and optical fibre characteristics are determined.
