Abstract:
In this applied theory study presents the results of theoretical investigation
of the normalized Birefringence produced in a single - mode optical fiber,
when this fiber produced under high accuracy manufacturing process to uses
it in long - haul communication field.
We suppose (by implying some experimental thesis) that the fiber core
contains a slight ellipticity lies between the range (es = (1-10.01) percent),
when the ellipticity comes from a manufacturing process imperfection.
We find the induced birefringence is small, then could not affect on the
state of the guided light, but it may causes a limited fluctuation in it in a long
fiber distanced.
In the other hand when we introduce a large ellipticity (eL = (15-91)
percent), intentionally to enhancing the internal geometrical Birefringence. We
find that the induced birefringence did not satisfied the minimum required
value to design polarization maintaining fibers, this mean that the geometric
contribution alone could not design such a fiber without introduce the other
kind called "stress birefringence".
