摘要:
The invention relates to a single-mode low-dispersion optical fiber for wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) of an optical transmission link, comprising a central fiber core with a radius r1, two inner layers of cladding with an outer radius r2 or a, whereby a is greater than r2, and an outer layer of cladding, whereby the refractive index n(r) of the fibers is inconstant as a function of the fibre radius r (a triple clad fiber). A fiber with a low dispersion in the wavelength range of approximately 1400 - 1700 nm, i.e. in the third optical window, can be manufactured using conventional production methods by selecting the appropriate profile and refractive index differentials between the core and or cladding without increasing the attenuation of said fibers. The transmission quality and output of an optical transmission link is increased by the inventive fibers in comparison with other standard optical fibers.
摘要:
The invention concerns a method of manipulating a compensation fibre such that it can compensate the high negative dispersion of a fibre laser in the second optical window. According to the invention, the active fibre of the fibre laser is linked to a compensation fibre which consists of a step-index quartz glass core with a sheathing. By doping the compensation fibre sheathing with fluorine in a targeted manner, a positive value is set for the dispersion of the compensation fibre. Subsequent dimensioning of the length of the compensation fibre increases the set dispersion value to the positive dispersion value necessary for complete compensation of the dispersion of the fibre laser.
