    摘要: Disclosed is a dispersion managed optical waveguide fiber. The power loss due to four wave mixing is kept low by making the waveguide from sub-lengths of fiber which have non-zero dispersion. The sign of the total dispersion of the sub-lengths is made to alternate along the length of the waveguide, thereby allowing the total dispersion of the waveguide to be managed to a pre-selected target value. It has been discovered that the best performance is obtained when the zero dispersion wavelengths of the sub-lengths are widely and asymmetrically separated. Advantages are realized when the core refractive index profile is changed for sub-lengths having total dispersion of different sign.

    摘要: An interference filter (10, 30, 50, 70, 90, 110, 130, 150, or 190) filters selected wavelengths by dividing an input beam into two or more intermediate beams having different optical path lengths and by recombining the intermediate beams into an output beam that is modified by interference between the intermediate beams. An optical path length difference generator (20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, or 200) varies the optical path lengths of the intermediate beams by changing the physical lengths of their paths or the refractive indices of the mediums in which they are conveyed. The optical path length generator (20) of one exemplary embodiment (10) includes a spacer plate (20) that is divided into elements (22 and 24) having different refractive indices for varying the optical path lengths of the intermediate beams. Another optical path length difference generator (140) is formed by a stack of partially reflective surfaces (144) that are spaced apart in the direction of beam propagation by at least one nominal wavelength for varying the physical path lengths between the intermediate beams.

    摘要: A novel optical waveguide fiber having low total dispersion slope, relatively large mode field diameter, larger effective area, and a relatively simple core profile design is disclosed. The core refractive index profile comprises three segments. The adjustability of the height, width and location of the three core index profile segments, provides sufficient flexibility to meet a specification which calls for a dispersion shifted waveguide fiber capable of limiting four photon mixing or self phase modulation. The novel waveguide is characterized by a mode field diameter .gtoreq.7.5 microns and a total dispersion slope .ltoreq.0.070 ps/nm.sup.2 -km.

    摘要: The present invention pertains to an asymmetrical bidirectional optical communication system of the type comprising a central station, a plurality of user stations, and a plurality of bidirectional optical transmission paths, one of which connects the central station and one of the user stations. The central station is provided with a laser for initiating in the optical transmission path the propagation at a wavelength in the 1100-1700 nm window of a single-mode signal. Each user station is provided with a light source which initiates in the optical transmission path the propagation at a wavelength in the 700-950 nm window of a few-mode signal. Each optical transmission path comprises an optical fiber having transmission characteristics such that the single-mode signal propagates with a total dispersion less than 5 ps/km-nm and the few mode signal propagates with a bandwidth greater than 1 GHz-km.

    摘要: A process for manufacturing a preform from which is drawn an optical fiber, the core of which comprises layers of different glass composition. Layers of glass soot are deposited on the flat, longitudinally extending sides of a thin, elongated mandrel. Adjacent soot coatings have different refractive indices. A preliminary coating of cladding glass soot is deposited on the laminated soot structure. The resultant composite body is consolidated and stretched to form a rod or core structure upon which the final coating of cladding soot is deposited. The resultant composite body is consolidated and drawn into an optical fiber. In a modification of the this method, the mandrel is removed after the planar soot coatings and preliminary coating of cladding soot are deposited thereon. The resultant soot body is consolidated and processed as described previously.
