Abstract

We report the experimental demonstration of a polarized superfluorescent fiber source (SFS) made by inserting a low- loss polarizer at an optimum position along the erbium-doped fiber of a standards SFS. This source produces a strongly polarized output with nearly the same output power as a standard, unpolarized SFS. We show good agreement between the behavior of the source and numerical simulations.
