Abstract:
A method for preparing a doped optical fibre preform includes formulating, a rare earth material or a functional metal material and a co-doping agent into a doping solution, mixing a high-purity quartz powder with the doping solution, drying same at a temperature of 100°C.-150°C. for 12-48 hours, crushing and screening the same to obtain a doped quartz powder; depositing the doped quartz powder onto the surface of a target rod to form a doped core layer; replacing the doped quartz powder with the high-purity quartz powder, and depositing the high-purity quartz powder onto the surface of the doped core layer to form a quartz outer cladding; and removing the target rod, and gradually collapsing the entirety formed from the doped core layer and the quartz outer cladding at a high temperature to obtain the doped optical fibre preform.
Abstract:
Provided are a high-efficiency parallel-beam laser optical fiber drawing method and optical fiber, the method including the steps of: S1: providing base planes on the side surfaces of both a gain optical fiber preform and a pump optical fiber preform, inwardly processing the base plane of the gain optical fiber preform to make a plurality of ribs protrude, and inwardly providing a plurality of grooves on the base plane of the pump optical fiber preform; S2: embedding the ribs into the grooves, tapering and fixing one end of the combination of the ribs and the grooves to form a parallel-beam laser optical fiber preform; S3: drawing the parallel-beam laser optical fiber preform into parallel-beam laser optical fibers. The process has high repeatability, and the obtained parallel-beam laser achieves peelability of pump optical fibers in a set area, thus facilitating multi-point pump light injection of parallel-beam laser optical fibers.
