  • Abstract
    Closed-form solutions are used to analyze the effects of low-frequency temperature changes on coated optical fiber in a polarimeter. It is shown that coating the optical fiber with certain materials to an appropriate thickness can, theoretically, produce a zero temperature sensitivity
