Fabrication of polarisation-maintaining fibres using gas-phase etching

A new fabrication technique for the production of high-birefringence fibres is described. The process is shown to produce fibres with a cross-sectional geometry which is close to the optimum predicted by stress analysis. As a result, fibres with extremely short beat lengths (0.55 mm at a wavelength of 633 nm) have been produced.
