Abstract
We propose two kinds of dual-core high birefringence and high coupling degree photonic crystal fibers (DHBHCD-PCFs) in this paper. The characteristics of birefringence and coupling are studied by multipole method. Numerical results show that the birefringence and the coupling length reach an order of 10− 2 and 10− 5 m at 1.55 μm, respectively. It is found that the birefringence and the coupling intensity increase with the increase of air-filling fraction, which is different from other dual-core fibers. The DHBHCD-PCFs with high degree of polarization-maintaining and high coupling degree are helpful for manufacturing minitype photonic apparatus.
