摘要：
An innovative mid-infrared polarization-maintaining photonic crystal fiber (PM-PCF) with an asymmetric orthogonal pattern of longitudinal holes having different periods and diameters is presented. The PM-PCF is designed and made of chalcogenide glass to offer endlessly single mode in the mid-infrared (2-6 mu m) with good beam quality (M-2 similar to 1). Most importantly, the guided mode is circular to improve the coupling efficiency and to perfectly collimate the output beam with a single lens. The large mode area enables the transmission of high-power polarized infrared laser (>10W CW). Also, the new PM-PCF has high birefringence (similar to 10(-4)), low propagation losses (0.2dB/m), and low insertion loss (<0.1dB). The PM-PCF preform is made by extrusion and is used to draw the mid-infrared PM-PCF. Simulation and experimental results on the mid-infrared PM-PCF are presented.
