Abstract: (2130 Views)
Recently, optical phase modulator (PM) inside a Sagnac interferometer (SI) has many applications in electro-optic and microwave photonic systems. Propagating lights inside the SI are combined coherently at its output, so their polarizations must be maintained. Therefore, polarization-maintaining optical fiber (PMF) are used in the SI. Since PMFs have birefringence, propagating lights with different polarizations, experience different phase delay inside the SI. In this paper, the effects of birefringence on the performance of an SI containing a PM, is theoretically investigated using the Jones matrix method. Closed form expressions for its transmission and reflection coefficients are derived. It is shown that these coefficients can be tuned by adjusting the birefringence parameter of the PMF and parameters of the PM.
