Abstract

The intrinsic linear birefringence in single-mode optical fibers has a large influence on Faraday rotation and Verdet constant measurement. This problem can be successfully overcome by twisting the fiber. In this paper the relation between the Farady effect signal and the twisted fiber parameters is analyzed, and a new method is proposed and verified experimentally for Verdet constant measurement.
