摘要:
An amplifying optical fiber includes an inner core, an inner cladding, a depressed trench, and an outer cladding (e.g., an outer optical cladding). Typically, the inner core includes a main matrix (e.g., silica-based) doped with at least one rare earth element. The depressed trench typically has a volume integral V13 of between about −2200×10−3 μm2 and −1600×10−3 μm2. Exemplary embodiments of the amplifying optical fiber are suitable for use in a compact configuration and high power applications.

A single-mode optical fiber includes a central core, an intermediate cladding, a depressed trench, and an external optical cladding. The central core has a radius r1 and a positive refractive index difference Δn1 with the optical cladding. The intermediate cladding has a radius r2 and a refractive index difference Δn2 with the optical cladding, wherein Δn2 is less than Δn1. The depressed trench has a radius r3 and a negative index difference Δn3 with the optical cladding. At a wavelength of 1310 nanometers, the optical fiber has a mode field diameter (MFD) between 8.6 microns and 9.5 microns and, at a wavelength of 1550 nanometers, the optical fiber has bending losses less than about 0.25×10−3 dB/turn for a radius of curvature of 15 millimeters. At a wavelength of 1260 nanometers, attenuation of the LP11 mode to 19.3 dB is achieved over less than 90 meters of fiber.

An improved optical fiber achieves both reduced bending and microbending losses, as well as a much higher Brillouin threshold, as compared to standard transmission fibers. The optical fiber comprises a core including at least two dopants and having a refractive index difference Δn1 with an outer optical cladding, a first inner cladding having a refractive index difference Δn2 with the outer cladding, and a depressed, second inner cladding having a refractive index difference Δn3 with the outer cladding of less than −3×10−3. The radial concentration of at least one of the core dopants varies continuously over the entire core region of the optical fiber.

A chromatic dispersion compensating and dispersion slope compensating optical fiber comprises a central core having an index difference Δn1 with an outer optical cladding, a first buried inner cladding having an index difference Δn2 with the outer cladding, a ring having an index difference Δn3 with the outer cladding and a second buried inner cladding having an index difference Δn4 with the outer cladding. The index difference between the first buried inner cladding and the outer cladding Δn2 is less than or equal to −13.5.10−3 and the index difference between the second buried inner cladding and the outer cladding Δn4 is less than or equal to −3.10−3. The fiber has, for a wavelength of 1550 nm, a chromatic dispersion less than or equal to −50 ps/nm/km and a ratio of the chromatic dispersion over the chromatic dispersion slope DOS less than or equal to 70 nm. The second deeply buried inner cladding allows obtaining a low DOS value whilst maintaining acceptable optical characteristics.

The invention relates to an chromatic dispersion-compensating optical fibre in the S-band, for use in compensating for the chromatic dispersion of either a standard SMF optical fibre or of an NZ-DSF optical fibre, carrying an optical signal in the spectral band in use, which is the S-band extending from 1460 nm to 1530 nm. The chromatic dispersion-compensating optical fibre in the S-band has a wavelength corresponding to the global chromatic dispersion minimum, which is situated outside the spectral band in use, that is to say outside the S-band.

Disclosed is a chromatic dispersion compensating optical fiber comprising a central core, an intermediate cladding having a width (r2−r1) of 2.0 microns or greater, and a depressed inner cladding having a refractive index difference Dn3 with the external optical cladding of −3.0×10−3 or lower. At a wavelength of 1550 nm, the optical fiber exhibits a positive chromatic dispersion of 21 ps/(nm·km) or higher and a ratio of mode radius to intermediate cladding radius of (W02/r2) of 0.7 or less. The present optical fiber has a good figure of merit value and limited bending and microbending losses. The optical fiber can be rolled up in a housing of reduced size in a chromatic dispersion compensating optical module having limited insertion losses and reduced polarization mode dispersion.
