摘要

In this paper, we designed a C2v-symmetry-structured photonic crystal fiber with triangular lattice and Au-filled air holes. The finite element method is used to analyze the dispersion and confinement loss characteristics of the core mode and the surface plasmon mode of the metal wire. In this work, we found that the positions of resonance peaks and the resonance strength of core mode and surface plasmon mode can be well adjusted by changing the pitch between the cladding air holes and the diameters of the air holes or metal wires around the core. By optimizing the parameters of the fiber structure, a polarization filter at the communication band is designed. At the wavelength of 1.31 mu m, which is located in the communication band, the fundamental mode in X pol can be filtered with the diameter of the metal wire d(m) = 1.2 mu m. When d(m) = 1.4 mu m, the fundamental mode in Y pol can be filtered at the wavelength of 1.55 mu m, which is also located in the communication band. Compared with the ordinary single-polarization and single-mode photonic crystal fiber, the fiber we proposed in this paper can selectively filter out the polarized light in one direction by adjusting the wire diameter. It is meaningful for the development of the polarization filter in the communication band.
