Low-loss Bending-insensitive Single-mode Optical Fiber for High Speed Communication System

A novel kind of low-loss single-mode optical fiber was designed and fabricated, which has superior anti-bending performance and good compatibility with the present optical fibers of constructed networks.

High Performance Large Mode-Area Ytterbium-doped Photonic Crystal Fiber for Fiber Lasers

In this letter, large-mode-area double-cladding ytterbium-doped photonic crystal fiber was designed in theory and fabricated in practice. This fiber we have fabricated successfully has endless single mode operation performance and large inner-cladding numerical aperture of more than 0.75. The struts width between large air-holes in the outer-cladding is about 0.22 μm. The photonic crystal fiber has a mode-area about 1465.7μm2. Due to the material being pure silica and air, such structures have excellent capacity to with-stand high temperature. The laser light can have very good beam quality, even diffraction-limited beam quality because of the single-mode core. This fabrication technical breakthrough of novelty high performance double-cladding ytterbium-doped photonic crystal fibers will give contributions to the high power fiber lasers and promote the progress of technology in the fields of high power lasers.
