- W4328117138 abstract "We report the design and fabrication of a polarization-maintaining fiber for applications in fiber-assisted THz communications. The fiber features a subwavelength square core suspended in the middle of a hexagonal over-cladding tube by four bridges. The fiber is designed to have low transmission losses, high birefringence, high flexibility, and near-zero dispersion at the carrier frequency of 128 GHz. An infinity 3D printing technique is used to continuously fabricate a 5 m-long polypropylene fiber of ∼6.8 mm diameter. The fiber transmission losses are furthermore reduced by as high as ∼4.4 dB/m via post-fabrication annealing. Cutback measurements using 3 m-long annealed fibers show ∼6.5-11 dB/m and ∼6.9-13.5 dB/m losses (by power) over a 110-150 GHz window for the two orthogonally polarized modes. Signal transmission with bit error rates of ∼10 −11 -10 −5 is achieved at 128 GHz for 1-6 Gbps data rates using a 1.6 m-long fiber link. The average polarization crosstalk values of ∼14.5 dB and ∼12.7 dB are demonstrated for the two orthogonal polarizations in fiber lengths of 1.6-2 m, which confirms the polarization-maintaining property of the fiber at ∼1-2 meter lengths. Finally, THz imaging of the fiber near-field is performed and shows strong modal confinement of the two orthogonal modes in the suspended-core region well inside of the hexagonal over-cladding. We believe that this work shows a strong potential of the infinity 3D printing technique augmented with post-fabrication annealing to continuously produce high-performance fibers of complex geometries for demanding THz communications applications." @default.
