There is provided a photonic bandgap fiber used in a state in which at least a part of the photonic bandgap fiber is bent at radii of 15 cm or greater and 25 cm or less. A large number of high refractive index portions 57 are disposed in a nineteen-cell core type in three layers, and a V value is 1.5 or greater and 1.63 or less. In the high refractive index portions 57, conditions are defined that a relative refractive index difference is ”% and a lattice constant is A µm so as to remove light in a higher mode at the bent portion as described above.

A multicore fiber 1 includes: a first core 11 that propagates light of up to an x-th order LP mode (here, x is an integer of "2" or more); and a second core 12 that propagates light of up to a y-th order LP mode (here, y is an integer of "1" or more), and a small diameter portion 33 in which a propagation constant of light of an x 1 -th order LP mode of the first core 11 (here, x 1 is an integer of "2" or more and x or less) and a propagation constant of light of a y1-th order LP mode of the second core 12 (here, y 1 is an integer of "1" or more and y or less other than x 1 ) coincide with each other and a large diameter portion in which a propagation constant of light of each LP mode of the first core 11 and a propagation constant of light of each LP mode of the second core 12 are configured not to coincide with each other are arranged.

In a C band and an L band, a multi-core fiber 1 includes: nine or more core elements 10 and 20 respectively including cores 11 and 21 that propagate light of at least up to a second-order LP mode, inner cladding layers 12 and 22, and trench layers 13 and 23; and an outer cladding 30. The effective refractive indices of light propagating through the cores 11 and 21 adjacent to each other are different from each other such that a magnitude of crosstalk of light of a highest-order LP mode commonly propagating through the cores 11 and 21 adjacent to each other between the cores 11 and 21 adjacent to each other becomes a peak at a bending diameter smaller than a diameter of 100 mm, and the core has a higher refractive index in a center portion than in an outer circumferential portion such that a differential mode group delay of the cores 11 and 12 is 700 picoseconds/km or less.

There is provided a multi-core fiber that can suppress the crosstalk between cores adjacent to each other even in the case where the multi-core fiber is nonlinearly disposed while suppressing splicing losses. A multi-core fiber (1) includes an even number of six or more of cores and a clad (20) that surrounds the outer circumferential surfaces of the cores. The cores are formed of two types of cores (11) and (12) in which an effective refractive index difference in a fundamental mode is 0.002 or less in a predetermined range or more that the effective refractive index difference in the fundamental mode is varied according to a core pitch. Two types of the cores (11) and (12) are alternately and annularly disposed at regular spacings. A difference in the mode field diameter of light propagating through the cores (11) and (12) is 1 µm or less.

The multi-cladding optical fiber of the present invention is provided with a core with an average refractive index n1 that guides a signal light and a cladding composed of an inner cladding with an average refractive index n2 that is formed on the periphery of the core, an intermediate cladding with an average refractive index n3 that is formed on the periphery of the inner cladding, and an outer cladding with an average refractive index n4 that is formed on the periphery of the intermediate cladding to confine an excitation light to the inner side of the intermediate cladding, characterized by the refractive indices n1 to n4 satisfying the relationship of n1 > n2 > n3 > n4; there being two or more axisymmetric modes in the core at a wavelength of the signal light; the two or more axisymmetric modes being composed of a fundamental mode and at least a high-order mode that is an axisymmetric mode of a higher order than the fundamental mode; and when bent at a predetermined bending diameter, the high-order mode in the core disperses within the inner cladding due to coupling with an inner cladding mode, so that only the fundamental mode substantially propagates through the core.

The effective refractive indexes of core elements 10a to 10c are different from each other, and the effective refractive indexes of the core elements 10a to 10c and the effective refractive index of a second core 21 are different from each other. No core is disposed at the lattice point of a triangular lattice of a first layer LY1. First cores 11a and 11b of the core elements 10a and 10b are disposed at the lattice points of a second layer LY2. A first core 11c of the core element 10c and the second core 21 are alternately disposed at the lattice points of a third layer LY3. In a fourth layer LY4, no core is disposed at six lattice points, and the first cores 11a and 11b of the core elements 10a and 10b are disposed at the other lattice points. The second cores 21 are adjacent to the lattice points of the fourth layer LY4, at which no core is disposed. The effective refractive indexes of the core elements adjacent to each other are different from each other.
