Abstract

An endlessly single-mode highly polarization maintaining birefringent photonic crystal fiber at wavelength 1.55μm is reported in this paper by Full-Vectorial Finite Element Method (FV-FEM). By taking three ring hexagonal structure of PCF with suitable designing parameter such as symmetrical large hole diameter along two orthogonal axis near the core region d´= 2.2μm, air hole diameter d = 0.9μm and pitch Λ=2.3μm, endlessly single-mode (<; JI), high birefringence (7.362×10^-3) with low confinement loss 0.000095dB/km are found at wavelength 1.55μm.
