Abstract
This paper describes the effects of twist in fiber laser cavities on the polarization properties of the laser output. The directions and frequencies of two laser eigen-polarization modes are found to evolve in a much more complicated way as a function of the twist rate (τ) compared to the well known case of polarization evolution in a twisted passive optical fiber.1
