We designed, fabricated, and characterized birefringent holey fibers with zero polarimetric sensitivity to temperature. The sensitivity measurements were carried out in a wide spectral range of 0.68-1.55 mu m in fibers with different hole and pitch values and with birefringence induced by a pair of large holes adjacent to the core. Our results show that zero sensitivity to temperature can be obtained at certain wavelengths for the bare fibers with properly adjusted geometrical parameters. Moreover, the spectral measurements of the sensitivity to temperature are in good agreement with the modeling results for all the investigated fibers.
