Abstract
In this paper, a dual hollow-core anti-resonant fiber polarization beam splitter (DHC-ARF PBS) with ultra-wide splitting bandwidth is proposed. The effects of the structure parameters of the DHC-ARF PBS on the splitting performances, including the coupling length, coupling length ratio, confinement loss, and higher-order mode extinction ratio (HOMER), are investigated using the finite element method. The simulation results show that under the optimal structure parameters, the proposed DHC-ARF PBS has larger HOMER (> 100) within the working wavelength range, indicating its good single-mode transmission characteristics. Moreover, the proposed DHC-ARF PBS has a short splitting length of 2.07 cm and an ultra-wide splitting bandwidth of 610 nm (1320 ~ 1930 nm), which covers the whole E, S, C, L, and U bands and a portion of O band. It is believed that the proposed DHC-ARF PBS will have significant applications in the optical communication and sensing systems.
