Abstract
A highly birefringent microstructured optical fiber (HB‐MOF) is investigated by using a UPML‐FDFD method. Based on the numerical results, the influence of the air‐hole size and pitch upon the mode birefringence, confinement loss, and single‐mode properties is analyzed. These properties and the influence among them are considered synthetically. Using the effective‐area method, the mode‐cutoff property of HB‐MOF is studied for the first time and the wavelength range for single‐mode operation can be obtained accurately. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this work, a coupled nonlinear equation is derived to describe the optical pulse propagation along a twin‐core fiber in the presence of birefringence. The properties of the equation obtained and the effects of randomly varying birefringence on soliton transmission and soliton switchi
When two photons are coded into entangled polarization states, one of the eigenstates of the direct product of the fiber transfer function matrix is found to be independent of the transmission fiber birefringence. The eigenstate is the entangled singlet state < , one of the Bell states. The entangle
