Abstract

A polarization-maintaining porous-core spiral photonic crystal fiber is proposed for efficient transmission of polarization-maintaining terahertz (THz) waves. The finite element method with perfectly matched layer boundary conditions is used to characterize the guiding properties. We demonstrate that by creating artificial asymmetry in the porous core, an ultrahigh birefringence of 0.0483 can be obtained at the operating frequency of 1.0 THz. Moreover, a low effective material loss of 0.085cm1 and very small confinement loss of 1.91×103dB/cm are achieved for the y-polarization mode with optimal design parameters. This article also focuses on some crucial design parameters such as power fraction, bending loss, and dispersion for usability in the THz regime.
