Abstract
Polarization properties of liquid-crystal core optical fibers have been inv estigated. The liquid-crystal fiber is characterized by elliptical anisotro pic core with low birefringence liquid crystal introduced by capillary axis . The paper presents also initial experimental results of the liquid-crysta l fiber in the polarimetric configuration subjected to the influence of sel ected perturbations.
