We present the preparation of polarization maintaining tellurite glass optical fibers for the mid-infrared supercontinuum generation. We have successfully fabricated a flat-core optical fiber using 78TeO₂-7ZnO-12Li₂O-3Bi₂O₃(mol%) for the core and 67TeO₂-18ZnO-12K₂O-3Bi₂O₃(mol%) glass for the cladding. The birefringence of the fabricated optical fiber is 6.9×10^-5 at a wavelength of 1.54 µm by numerical simulations.
