A multi-core optical fibre 1A in which a plurality of cores can easily be identified even in the case where they are symmetrically arranged in its section has seven cores 10 to 16, a visual recognition marker 20, and a shared cladding 30 enclosing the seven cores 10 to 16 and the visual recognition marker 20. The cores 10 to 16 and the visual recognition marker 20 extend along the fibre-axis direction. The respective refractive index of the cores 10 to 16 is higher than the refractive index of the cladding 30. The refractive index of the visual recognition marker 20 differs from that of the cladding 30. In the cross-section perpendicular to the fibre-axis, the cores 10 to 16 are arranged such that they have 6-fold rotational symmetry and line symmetry. The visual recognition marker 20 is arranged at a position which breaks such symmetry.

An optical fiber comprises a core region, an inner cladding region, and an outer cladding region. Each of the core region and inner cladding region is doped with GeO2, whereas the inner cladding region is also doped with F element. The core region has a refractive index higher than each of the refractive index of the inner cladding region and the refractive index of the outer cladding region. Each of the core region and inner cladding region doped with GeO2 has a UV photosensitivity. The deviation in concentration distribution of GeO2 added to the inner cladding region is so small that the deviation in UV photosensitivity in the inner cladding region is ±10% or less.

An optical fiber has a plurality of holes in a cladding around a core, and has a high failure strength and small transmission loss. The core is made of glass. The cladding surrounds the core, and the holes are formed in the cladding so as to extend along a central axis of the fiber. The holes are formed with constant intervals therebetween along a circle centered on the core, and each hole has a substantially circular cross section. The cladding is sectioned into two claddings. A residual stress in an inner region that is inside a circumcircle of the holes is a compressive stress.

A method of manufacturing a photonic bandgap fibre comprises preparing composite rods having a central region of a first refractive index, and a surrounding region of a second refractive index. There follow steps of: selectively removing the surface of the composite rods to produce composite rods having a part with a first diameter and a part with a second diameter larger than said first diameter; stacking composite rods around a core rod; inserting the stacked rods into jacket tube to form an assembly; and reducing the jacket tube and stacked rods into fibre. Embodiments may comprise measuring the refractive index of the composite rods to calculate a ratio of diameters of the central region and surrounding region to determine an amount of the surface of the composite rods to remove. Further embodiments may comprise flowing chlorine gas through the assembly to remove impurities or moisture present in the surface of rod and jacket tube of the assembly.

A method for manufacturing a glass body containing bismuth, which can be used for manufacturing an optical fiber having a low background-loss is provided. The method includes depositing a glass micro-particle layer on an inner wall of a glass pipe, consolidating the glass micro-particle layer to form a glass layer, reducing of a diameter of the glass pipe having the glass layer on the inner wall of the glass pipe, and collapsing the glass pipe having been reduced in diameter at the diameter-reducing step so as to form the glass body. At the depositing step, the glass micro-particle layer is formed while an organobismuth compound is being supplied into the glass pipe. At the consolidating step, the glass layer is consolidated while an organobismuth compound is being supplied into the glass pipe. The optical fiber is made by drawing the glass body.
