Theoretical analysis, design considerations, and manufacturing techniques of a fiber‐optic polarizer made of crystal‐clad single‐mode fiber are discussed. The measured extinction ratio exceeds 30 dB over a wide bandwidth and is 37 dB at 1.53‐μm wavelength. The excess loss is less than 1 dB. The device is 3x3x20 mm in size.
