Abstract:A convenient way of achieving polarizationinsensitive four-wave mixing in optical fibers is through the use of two orthogonally polarized pumps. However, the interplay between fiber birefringence and the four-wave mixing processes makes polarization insensitivity challenging to achieve. The strict control of the input pumps' states of polarization has been used to minimize polarization sensitivity. Nonetheless, a comprehensive analysis of the complex interplay between birefringence and four-wave mixing, both t… Show more
