Abstract
A simple mechanical setup was used to polish a standard single mode optical fiber in order to make it asymmetric. The polished fiber was tapered down maintaining the D-shape transversal profile. Its broken symmetry along with the extended evanescent field, due to the dimensions of the microfiber, implies a potentially high birefringent waveguide as well as a high-sensitivity external refractive index device. An experimental maximum sensitivity of S≈(3.0±0.2)×104 nm/RIU was achieved, other experimental and numerical results supporting our initial assumptions are also presented. © 1983-2012 IEEE.311630563061Ortigosa-Blanch, A., Knight, J.C., Wadsworth, W.J., Arriaga, J., Mangan, B.J., Birks, T.A., Russell, P.S.J., Highly birefringent photonic crystal fibers (2000) Opt Lett, 25 (18), pp. 1325-1327. , http://ol.osa.org/ab-stract.cfm?URI=ol-25-18-1325, SeptBeltrán-Mejia, F., Chesini, G., Silvestre, E., George, A.K., Knight, J.C., Cordeiro, C.M., Ultrahigh-birefringent squeezed lattice photonic crystal fiber with rotated elliptical air holes (2010) Opt Lett, 35 (4), pp. 544-546. , http://ol.osa.org/abstract.cfm?URI=ol-35-4-544, FebJung, Y., Brambilla, G., Oh, K., Richardson, D.J., Highly birefringent silicamicrofiber (2010) Opt.
