Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Optics and Photonics

Background:

  • Microstructured optical fibers (MOFs) offer unique light-guiding properties.
  • Fabrication of complex MOFs with precise internal structures remains challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To demonstrate a versatile three-stage stack-and-draw method for complex MOF fabrication.
  • To fabricate and characterize a novel silica superlattice MOF with a high density of air-holes.
  • To investigate the polarization-maintaining capabilities and environmental stability of the fabricated fiber.

Main Methods:

  • A generic three-stage stack-and-draw technique was employed.
  • Silica preforms were drawn to create microstructured optical fibers.
  • Characterization included optical microscopy, birefringence measurement, and environmental sensitivity testing.

Main Results:

  • Successfully fabricated a silica superlattice MOF with over 800 rhomboidally arranged air-holes.
  • Demonstrated a polarization-maintaining fiber with a high birefringence of 8.5 × 10-4.
  • The fiber's birefringent property showed high insensitivity to external pressure variations.

Conclusions:

  • The three-stage stack-and-draw method is effective for creating complex MOFs.
  • The fabricated silica superlattice MOF exhibits excellent polarization-maintaining characteristics.
  • The fiber's robust birefringence makes it suitable for demanding applications.
