Abstract
This article designs and theoretically investigates a highly birefringent photonic
crystal fiber (HB-PCF) for reducing the effect of polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) in high-
speed optical communication system. To achieve a high modal birefringence in the proposed HB-
PCF, we designed four types of HB-PCF by adding some birefringence-enhancing factors step by
step in sequence. Ultimately, from the simulation results, the numeric value of modal birefringence
of the proposed HB-PCF is up to 25.008×10−3 at the habitual wavelength λ = 1.55 µm of optical-
fiber communications.
