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.

In the production method for the polarization-maintaining optical fiber of the present invention, a plurality of holes 22 are formed longitudinally in parallel along a single diameter direction of a glass rod 21 having a low refractive index which forms the cladding, glass rods 23 for core use having a high refractive index which form the core portions are inserted into these holes 22, heating to form a unitary body is carried out, creating a preform which is then drawn. Further, the rare-earth-doped polarization-maintaining optical fiber of the present invention uses a rare earth element to dope the optical waveguide portion of the polarization-maintaining optical fiber, and can be employed in a light amplifier or laser oscillator. Moreover, the polarization-maintaining optical fiber coupler of the present invention is formed by bringing two or more polarization maintaining optical fibers into contact, heating, fusing and elongating them, and heating the vicinity of the connection point before and after connection.
