“…Due to seldom research works related to the high birefringent PCF for the application of FOG, the comparison table has been taken for more specific references which discuss the compactness of PCF with high birefringence. The proposed PCF has only circular air holes, whereas some other research works have also reported to show the impact of different types of air holes such as elliptical [45,46] and circular [18,47] to achieve high birefringence. There are number of fabrication techniques to fabricate PCF today, like sol gel casting [48], stack and draw process [49], drilling method [50], and extrusion method [51].…”
