We describe a polarization-maintaining fiber-based polarization-sensitive optical low-coherence reflectometer for measurement of depth-resolved birefringence. Unlike for other fiber-based polarization-sensitive optical low-coherence reflectometers, here the linear birefringence of a sample can be measured from data recorded in a single A scan. Simultaneous measurement of retardation and orientation of birefringent axes with mica wave plates is demonstrated. The measured retardation is insensitive to sample rotation in the plane perpendicular to ranging.
我们描述了一种基于保偏光纤的偏振敏感光学低相干反射仪，用于测量深度分辨双折射。与其他基于光纤的偏振敏感光学低相干反射仪不同，在此可以从单次A扫描记录的数据中测量样品的线性双折射。展示了使用云母波片同时测量双折射轴的延迟和方向。所测量的延迟对样品在垂直于测距平面内的旋转不敏感。
