  • Abstract
    Measurements on borosilicate fibres with noncircular cores indicate that the noncircular geometry and the associated stress-induced birefringence alone are not sufficient to maintain polarisation in single-mode fibres. To achieve single polarisation fibres, it is necessary to deliberately enhance the anisotropic birefringence.
