摘要:
In a method of measurement of the birefringence of an optical fiber, the round-trip Jones matrix R(z) for a first interval (0, z) from a measurement starting point 0 in the optical fiber for measurement to a prescribed position z, and the round-trip Jones matrix R(z+Δz) for a second interval (0, z+Δz) from the measurement starting point 0 to a position z+Δz differing from the position z, are acquired, the eigenvalues ρ1, ρ2 of the matrix R(z+Δz)R(z)−1 are determined, and by computing the following equations (1) and (2), ϕ = arg ( ρ 1 ρ 2 ) 2 ( 1 ) Δ n = λϕ 2 π · Δ z ( 2 ) (where φ represents the phase difference between linear polarization components due to birefringence, Δn represents birefringence, and λ represents wavelength), the birefringence in the infinitesimal interval Δz from the position z to the position z+Δz is obtained.

An optical fiber is produced so as to have ring-shape refractive index profile such that chromatic dispersion is between +6 ps/nm/km or larger and smaller than +15 ps/nm/km in 1550 nm wavelength, the transmission loss is smaller than 0.210 dB/km, effective cross sectional area Aeff is larger than 90 μm2, dispersion slope is in a range of 0.05 ps/nm2/km and 0.08 ps/nm2/km. By doing this, an optical fiber having ring-shaped refractive index profile, enlarged effective cross sectional area, restricted dispersion slope, and low loss characteristics can be provided.
