We numerically compare the mode birefringence and conflnement loss with four patterns (case A{D) of index-guiding photonic crystal flbers (PCF) using the flnite element method. These PCFs are composed of a solid silica core surrounded by difierent sizes of elliptical air holes and a cladding which consist of the same elliptical air holes in flber cladding with tetragonal lattice. The maximal modal birefringence and lowest conflnement loss of our proposed case A structure at the excitation wavelength of ‚ = 1550nm can be achieved at a magnitude of 5:3 £ 10 ¡2 (which is the highest value to our knowledge) and less than 0.051dB/km (an acceptable value less than 0.1dB/km) with only four rings of air holes in flber cladding, respectively. The merit of our designed PCFs is that the birefringence and conflnement loss can be easily controlled by turning the pitch (hole to hole spacing) of elliptical air holes in PCF cladding.
