Abstract: In addition to form birefringence and stress changes, the UV-induced mode-field deformation can significantly contribute to the total birefringence in UV-side-illuminated fibers. It causes a non-balanced weighting of the stress anisotropy, even if the circular symmetry of the stress distribution is not broken.
