A system and method for guiding polarized light is disclosed. One system comprises a large core hollow waveguide having first and second dimensions that are substantially perpendicular. The first and second dimensions are orthogonal to a direction of travel of light in the waveguide. A length of the first dimension is substantially greater than a length of the second dimension to enable light waves with an electric field approximately parallel with the first dimension to propagate through the waveguide with substantially less loss than light waves that have an electric field approximately parallel with the second dimension.
