Description

一种大有效面积光纤 技术领域
[0001] 本发明涉及光纤, 尤其涉及一种低衰减的大有效面积单模光纤。
背景技术
[0002] 随着国际通信业务的发展, 尤其是互联网技术以及 3G和无源光网络等技术的迅猛发 展, 通信***对光纤带宽的需求呈现出飞快的增长趋势。 在长距离、 大容量、 高速率传输的 通信***中, 通常需要用到光纤放大器技术以及波分复用技术, 尤其是在主干网和海底通信 中, 对光纤的无中继传输距离和传输容量有着更高的要求。 然而, 传输容量和距离的增长需 要更高的入纤功率和更低的光纤损耗来满足可分辨的信噪比需求。 而随着入纤功率的增大, 不可避免的要在狭窄的光纤芯层产生子相位调制、 交叉相位调制、 四波混频等非线性效应, 尤其会产生阈值较低的受激布里渊散射效应, 这些效应的产生使得***产生信号串扰, 或者 使***的信噪比降低, 从而无法继续提高传输容量。
[0003] 这些非线性效应的产生与光纤中的光功率密度尤其相关, 通常情况下, 采用较大的有 效面积可以降低光纤中的功率密度, 从而降低光纤中非线性效应的阈值, 提高传输功率。 然 而随着有效面积的增加, 光纤的 MAC值随之增大, 光纤会对弯曲更加敏感, 在实际使用中, 光纤因为弯曲而产生的附加损耗会造成光纤损耗的增加, 影响传输性能。 另一方面, 光纤损 耗越低, 同样的入纤功率能够传输的更远, 也能够提高光纤的传输容量。
[0004] 国际电信联盟 IUT-T在 2010年修订的 G.654标准中定义了一种截止波长位移的单模 光纤, 它的衰减水平小于 0.22dB/km, 其在 1550nm波长窗口的模场直径为 9.5-13 μ ιη, 相对 于标准单模光纤 SSMF ( standard single-mode fiber) , 其模场直径提高了 1-2 μ m, 从而有相 对较大的有效面积,用于海底光缆能够有效的提高无中继跨段长度,然而其宏弯性能较 SSMF 有着比较明显的下降。
[0005] 专利 US6904218描述了以下的光纤结构分布: 该光纤结构包括中央纤芯、 中间下陷包 层和外包层, 并且有效面积在 1310nm波长处大于 80 μ ιη2, 且这种光纤在弯曲半径为 10mm 的宏弯损耗小于 0.7dB/圈, 其光纤衰减值仅为低于 0.19dB/km, 然而在其所有的实施实例中 有效面积在 1550nm窗口最高只有 131.2 μ m2
[0006] 专利 US7254305描述了以下光纤结构分布: 该结构包括中央纤芯, 中间包层, 下陷包 层和外包层, 其在 1550nm波长处衰减小于 0.19dB/km。然而其结构分布中中央纤芯和包层的 折射率差值过高, 从而无法同时得到超过 100 μ ιη2有效面积, 同时由于其芯层折射率绝对值 较高, 需要较高的 Ge掺杂浓度, 造成光纤的衰减大于 0.185dB/km。
[0007] 一般来说, 通过下述方法能够提高光纤的有效面积。 一是增加芯层的几何尺寸, 芯层 的折射率高于包层, 光纤中绝大部分光都在芯层中传播, 芯层直径的增加, 直接增加了有效 面积, 然而芯直径的增加直接影响截止波长, 而截止波长必须小于通讯窗口波长, 因此芯直 径增加的幅度是有限的。 二是降低芯层的相对折射率, 这样使光场分布更加平坦, 从而增加 了有效面积, 同时还降低了截止波长, 但对光纤衰减有负面的影响。
[0008] 由芯层结构的变化和芯层尺寸的增加虽然带来有效面积的增加, 但也同时会使得光纤 的弯曲性能以及光纤衰减性能的恶化, 为顾及光纤的弯曲性能, 以上专利中光纤的有效面积 的增加值有限。 在所见专利中, 还没有见到有效面积大于 135 μ ιη2, 并且保持良好弯曲性能 的光纤。

[0025] 按上述方案, 所述光纤的光缆截止波长小于等于 1530nm。

[0028] 本发明的有益效果在于:1. 芯层相对折射率与纯石英玻璃的折射率接近,与普通 SSMF 相比, 充分的降低了瑞利散射带来的损耗, 有利于光纤衰减的降低; 通过对内芯层较低的折 射率分布设计, 使光纤中传播的光功率分布更加平坦, 从而在保持整个芯层尺寸不变的情况 下, 增大了有效面积, 同时, 也使得这种光纤与普通 SSMF的熔接损耗降低。 2. 芯层分为两 层结构, 外芯层保持合适的相对折射率差, 内芯层适当的下陷, 这样能够在保持良好的衰减 特性和同样芯层直径的同时, 进一步的增大有效面积, 还能够降低截止波长。 3. 具有较深的 下陷包层, 能够在有效面积增大的情况下, 保持良好的光纤弯曲特性, 改善了由于增大有效 面积带来的弯曲性能的负面影响, 同时限制了光功率的分布范围, 使光纤中传播的功率集中 在光纤的芯层, 有利于光纤衰减的降低。 4. 芯层为 F和 Ge共同掺杂, 能够降低芯层的粘度, 使芯包的粘度失配情况得到改善, 有利于光纤衰减的降低。
[0029] 本发明的光纤具有更大的有效面积和相当低的传输损耗, 因此特别适合于长距离高速 大容量通信***的应用, 如应用于海底光缆通信***或者长距离陆地传输***中, 该光纤保 持了与 G.654光纤的兼容, 同时具有相当良好的弯曲性能, 更有利于光纤成缆和光纤敷设工 程的实际应用。
