摘要:
A higher order mode dispersion compensating fiber includes an optical fiber and a first loss layer which is provided within the fiber and which attenuates a lower order mode propagating through the optical fiber while not attenuating a higher order mode which is higher than the lower order mode. A dispersion compensating fiber mode converter for a higher order fiber includes a single mode fiber; a higher order mode dispersion compensating fiber; and a fused and extended portion which has been formed by fusing and extending the single mode fiber and the higher order mode fiber. The fused and extended portion converts between the LP01 mode of the single mode fiber and the LP02 mode of the higher order mode dispersion compensating fiber.

摘要:
In an optical transmission path including multimode optical fibers, modal dispersion is reduced so that signal light can be transmitted at high speed and across a broad band, at low-cost and over a long distance. To reduce modal dispersion, when the transmission path is constructed by coupling a plurality of multimode optical fibers, a length ratio for the multimode optical fibers that obtains the maximum band of the optical transmission path is determined, and the multimode optical fibers are coupled according to this length ratio. The multimode optical fibers that are used have specific refractive index profiles as mode dispersion-compensating fibers. The compensated fiber and the mode dispersion-compensating fiber are coupled with specific lengths.

A hole-assisted holey fiber is provided. The holey fiber includes a core region; a cladding region around the core region, and a plurality of holes in the cladding region around the core region. The core region has a higher refractive index than that of the cladding region. The holes form an inner hole layer and an outer hole layer, and the inner hole layer has the same number of holes as the number of the holes in the outer hole layer. The outer layer holes are provided in locations in which inner holes are absent when viewed from the center of the core region, and holes defining the same layer have the same diameter. A distance Λ1 from a center of the core region to a center of an inner hole and a distance Λ2 from the center of the core region to a center of an outer hole satisfy the relationship Λ1
