Tuning wavelength selective birefringent optical fiber filters using twist birefringence

A novel physical tuning mechanism for optical fiber filters is proposed and studied. To explore tuning mechanisms, a theoretical model of a Sole birefringent fiber filter is described. The coherency equation of motion for a birefringent filter is solved by transforming to the Stokes-Mueller matrix e...
