Polarisation-holding in a high-birefringence fibre

Abstract
The polarisation-holding ability of a 1 km length of high-birefringence fibre is reported. The fibre birefringence increases linearly with frequency and the polarisation-holding parameter h is independent of frequency with a value of 5.5 × 10−6 m−1, indicating average polarisation-holding to −22 dB.
