2. Commercial polarization control devices for fiber optics
After a brief reminder of how polarization states are represented on the Poincaré sphere, this section describes the main existing and commercially available devices for controlling or stabilizing the polarization state of a laser wave in fiber optics.
2.1 Representation of polarization on the Poincaré sphere
In this article, wave polarizations will often be represented on the Poincaré sphere (figure 1). In this representation system, which is widely used in practice, each point on the sphere corresponds to a particular polarization state. The north and...
