    摘要: Disclosed in the present invention are a single-mode optical fiber with ultralow loss and a large effective area and a manufacturing method therefor. The bare optical fiber of the single-mode optical fiber comprises a core layer and a cladding layer in sequence from inside to outside. The core layer comprises an inner core layer and an outer core layer which are arranged in sequence from inside to outside. The radius R 1 of the inner core layer is 1.5-3µm, and the relative refractive index difference Δ 1 of the inner core layer is -0.01%≤Δ 1 ≤0. The radius R 2 of the outer core layer is 5-6µm, and the relative refractive index difference Δ 2 of the outer core layer is 0≤Δ 2 ≤0.05%. The core layer is hardly doped with germanium and is a silica glass layer doped with fluorine and an alkali metal oxide. The cladding layer includes a depressed cladding layer and an outer cladding layer which are arranged in sequence from inside to outside. The radius R 3 of the depressed cladding layer is 40-50µm, and the relative refractive index difference Δ 3 of the depressed cladding layer is -0.25%≤Δ 3 ≤-0.15%. The ratio R 3 /R 2 of the radius R 3 of the depressed cladding layer to the radius R 2 of the outer core layer is greater than or equal to 8. The radius R 4 of the outer cladding layer is 62.5µm, and the outer cladding layer is a pure silica glass layer. The present invention can reduce the attenuation coefficient and increase the effective area.
