Abstract :
We experimentally investigated the strain sensing characteristics of two types of the high-birefringent two-core photonic crystal fibers (HB-TCPCF) in the Sagnac loop configuration using phase-monitoring method, where each elliptic core in a typical birefringent fiber independently forms a distinct Sagnac loop interferometer.
