    摘要: Disclosed is a dispersion controlled optical waveguide fiber, and telecommunication systems using such a waveguide fiber, in which the end to end total dispersion and total dispersion slope is controlled by varying the refractive index profile along the fiber length. The waveguide fiber includes length portions each of which is characterized by total dispersion having a magnitude and sign and total dispersion slope having a magnitude and sign. The magnitudes and signs of total dispersion and total dispersion slope of respective length portions are chosen to provide for the optical waveguide fiber a desired end to end total dispersion and total dispersion slope. An advantage is achieved in the present invention by designing the refractive index profiles of the length portions to have total dispersion and total dispersion slope of opposite sign.

    摘要: An optical fiber having optical characteristics that vary along its length is made by assembling a plurality of cylindrical glass or soot tablets into or along a glass tablet alignment device, then fused into monolithic assembly. If desired, additional glass may be applied to the assembly before or after the fusing step. A vacuum is preferably applied during the fusing step. Each tablet preferably contains a core region, and it optionally contains a layer of cladding glass. Adjacent tablets are capable of forming optical fiber sections having different optical properties. Prior to consolidating the glass particles, chlorine preferably flows through or around the tablets and alignment device. The resultant draw blank can be drawn into a low loss optical fiber having short transition regions between adjacent areas of fiber. This method is particularly useful for making dispersion managed single-mode optical fibers.

    摘要: A method of making a glass article such as an optical waveguide preform is disclosed. The method comprises drawing a rod in at least two steps. In the first step an elongated, consolidated preform having an aperture therethrough is drawn to a reduced diameter preform. The second step involves drawing the reduced diameter preform into a rod, preferably at a lower temperature than the first step. The method substantially reduces the formation of inclusions in the glass article during drawing.
