Abstract

We show that, using index guidance within an isotropic all SiO₂ structure of only 4 layers, it possible to design an optical fiber that supports just one mode of a single polarization: the azimuthally polarized TE₀₁ mode. In particular a ring guide of appropriate index of doped SiO₂, thickness and radius guides TE₀₁ as the fundamental mode. Then an outer layer can be used to cut off higher order modes. This design is in contrast to those that require Bragg guidance or anisotropic materials.
