A directional coupler based on nematic liquid crystal filled photonic crystal fiber

Abstract

A highly temperature sensitive directional coupler is demonstrated experimentally by selectively filling nematic liquid crystal into a single void of the photonic crystal fiber. The temperature response of the device exhibits good linearity.
