The effect of elastic fatigue on the output transmission of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer comb filter

The elastic characteristics of linear birefringence and its effect upon the output of an optical fiber dual-pass MZI comb filter are theoretically and experimentally analyzed. The result shows that the linear birefringence is induced by the mutual pressure applied on fiber due to the applied stress....
