Abstract

In the paper, polarization beam splitters are studied. Our theoretical study reveals that the coupling length and modulation period of a polarization beam splitter made from the depressed cladding fiber are shorter compared with that made from the matched fiber. Thus the former is characterized by a short interaction length. On the other hand, a polarization beam splitter made from the raised cladding fiber has a longer coupling length and a longer modulation period than those made from the matched fiber.
