(a) Normalized electric field distributions of x-polarized light in the metal-coated ARF when θm is 10°. (b) Detail x-, y-, and z-components of the x-polarized light in fiber when θm is 10°. (c) Normalized electric field distributions of y-polarized light in the metal-coated ARF when θm is 10°. (d) Detail x-, y-, and z-components of the y-polarized light in fiber when θm is 10° and (e) those when θm is 36°. The arrows indicate the direction of the electric field.
