摘要
Birefringence monitoring of a Hi-Bi fibre under chemical etching is conducted. The Hi-Bi fibre (a bow-tie type) was inserted in a fibre loop mirror and the optical spectral response was measured while chemical etching of the Hi-Bi fibre was taking place. The birefringence of the bow-tie fibre has decreased due to the etching and the wavelength spacing of the fringe minima of the fibre loop mirror has increased.
