Abstract

The polarization effects in photonic crystal fibers is observed by using nanoscale metals films and this effect is calculated by using Finite Element Method. The phenomenon of surface Plasmon resonance has also been observed and it has been observed that the metals which show surface plasmon resonance are generally very good conductors such as gold, silver, Aluminium, etc. In this review paper, various designs have been studied using various metal films, liquid crystals, and so on. It has been observed that resonance wavelengths can be modulated by adjusting the dimensions of air hole as well as the diameter of air hole which is coated by different metal films or metal wires. It has also been observed that the loss in y-mode is very high as compared to x-mode at their respective wavelengths. It is desired to have resonant wavelength in optical window, ie., in the range of 1.31 to 1.55 μm.
