Abstract [en]
Potentially low-cost polarization controllers were studied with a current-driven internal electrode fibers. The return loss was determined for the device. An EDFA was used as light source, and five devices were constructed and tested. The polarization dependent loss (PDL) of the polarization controllers was measured between 1530 nm and 1570 nm using the Jones-matrix method. The response times for the controllers was found to be relatively slow. The rise time of the optical response was significantly improved by overshooting the current pulse.
