Abstract

We study the birefringence characteristics of photonic crystal fiber with squeezed lattice and elliptical air holes in the cladding, based on the supercell lattice method. A definition of modified squeezing ratio is introduced, which describes the complex effect of elliptical air holes and squeezed lattice on the birefringence characteristics. Studies show that the birefringence simply varies with the modified squeezing ratio in a certain range. So the concept of modified squeezing ratio can be used to design the high birefringence photonic crystal fiber.
