Polarizing Optical Fiber

  • Polarizing Optical Fiber
  • Thorlabs' Polarizing (PZ) fibers, also known as Zing™ fibers, are specialty optical fibers in which one and only one polarization state is allowed to propagate. Light with any other polarization direction will experience significant optical loss and thus is not propagated through the fiber.

    To create this effect, our PZ fiber utilizes bow-tie geometry to create an extreme birefringence. This birefringence ensures that only light with the proper polarization direction is guided through the fiber, whereas all other polarization directions experience high loss.
