A single-mode fused biconical 2¡Ñ2 coupler for polarization beamsplitting is fabricated in this thesis. We use simple fused and tapered method to fabricate the polarization beamsplitter(PBS) stably, and then we can get polarization maintaining in the output fibers. Without changing the manufacturing process, we design the device with special combination of fabrication parameters. We have achieved an extinction ratio of 25.78dB at the throughput port and 27.16dB at the coupled port. A usable spectral window as broad as 37nm and 27nm with an extinction ratio larger than 15dB for both ports is obtained. The excess loss is about 0.3dB. Based on a full-wave numerical approach, the performance of the PBS can be well modeled. We get good agreement between the measured and simulated results.
