Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a beat length detection system for measuring the measured polarization maintaining optical fiber. The beat length detection system is composed of a hardware part and a software part. Background technique [0002] Polarization-maintaining fiber uses the shape birefringence or stress birefringence of the waveguide to maintain polarization. Stress is now widely used to achieve birefringence, that is, an additional material with a thermal expansion coefficient larger than quartz is used to generate stress in the optical fiber. When making a strained polarization-maintaining fiber, a fiber preform is made by placing two highly doped silica rods (usually boron, phosphorus, or aluminum) on either side of the core. The fiber is drawn into an optical fiber at high temperature. After the fiber is drawn, the two highly doped rods shrink when cooling, but their heat shrinkage is affected by the surrounding quartz, so that the highly doped...
