We present the polarization dependence in the formation of dark spatial waveguides in nonlinear liquids like CS2. Our experimental and numerical results about the formation of dark waveguides show the dependence between the polarization and the formation of multiple waveguides. With a polarization angle between 100° - 120° for the incident beam we show that the wide of the waveguide is minimum and even dark spatial waveguides are formed. A discussion about waveguides formation is presented for others polarization angles. In this work we show an improvement in the method to measure low birefringence in optical fibers.
