Mathematical modeling as an accurate predictive tool in capillary and microstructured fiber manufacture: The effects of preform rotation

A method for modeling the fabrication of capillary tubes is developed that includes the effects of preform rotation, and is used to reduce or remove polarization mode dispersion and fiber birefringence. The model is solved numerically, making use of extensive experimental investigations into furnace...
