Description

Optical fiber and manufacture method thereof with high bandwidth
Technical field
The present invention relates to have the manufacture method and the multimode optical fibers of the multimode optical fibers of high bandwidth, particularly relate to the method for making high-bandwidth multi-mode fiber by the measuring technology of index distribution.
Background technology
The optical fiber light-wave communication system is being played the part of important role in the voice and data transmission.The optical fiber that is used in the communication system can be single-mode fiber or multimode optical fibers.The present invention relates generally to the method for making multimode optical fibers.However, the method disclosed in the present also can be used to make single-mode fiber.
Multimode optical fibers comprises with the sandwich layer of whole signal limitations with around the covering of sandwich layer.Usually, be inserted with the blocking layer between meeting between sandwich layer and the covering.Multimode optical fibers is drawn by prefabricated rods and forms, this prefabricated rods can be by different technology processing, such as the chemical Vapor deposition process (MCVD) of improvement, Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) (PCVD), outside chemical Vapor deposition process (OVD), vapour phase axial deposition technique (VAD) or the like.
The communication performance of optical fiber mainly determines by light loss or decay and by chromatic dispersion.Light loss causes that by absorption, scattering, bad geometrical shape or textural defect and chromatic dispersion the tailing effect that these have caused light pulse causes noise.In the multimode optical fibers, signal dispersion causes owing to chromatic dispersion and intermode dispersion.Chromatic dispersion is because the change of refractive of the different wave length that causes of material itself, and intermode dispersion is because the light path difference of different transmission mode.Chromatic dispersion is expressed as the fiber bandwidth of per unit length or the Maximum Bit Rate of per unit length.
By design optical fiber, make it to have the index distribution of radial variations in core region, can reduce intermode dispersion.The big or small known of specific refractory power (n) is the function of the radius (r) from fiber optic hub, as following equation 1:
n(r)=n 1(1-2Δ(r/a) α) 1/2 (1)
n(r)=n 2(1-2Δ) 1/2
Wherein, n 1The specific refractory power at expression sandwich layer center; n 2The specific refractory power of expression covering, α represents the sandwich layer shape index, and Δ represents refractive index contrast, shown in equation 2:
Δ=(n 1-n 2)/n 1 (2)
Have been found that the multimode optical fibers bandwidth depends primarily on the value of α.Therefore, the distribution shape of the sandwich layer of graded fiber is parabola shaped, and can obtain higher bandwidth when α gets 1.9~2, and this depends on wavelength.This discovery is plotted in 43 pages of Figure 34 of " Optical FiberCommunications vol.1, Fiber Fabrication, Academic Press Inc., 1985 ,-Tingye Li ".The figure illustrates when the value of α less than 1.9 or greater than 2 the time, the bandwidth of multimode optical fibers will be less than 500MHzKm.Equal 2 (1-Δs) if the α value is chosen as, wherein Δ is the refractive index contrast between sandwich layer and the covering, and the bandwidth of so much mode fiber will be higher.
Therefore, make the α value reach this value or be in maximum value between 1.9~2.0, will make the bandwidth maximization of multimode optical fibers.The above results has caused the development of the multimode optical fibers of present disclosed method and manufacturing.

In addition, existing method also requires to utilize the refractive index distribution structure of the analysis of differential mode delay device with the optical fiber of house of correction manufacturing except requiring to utilize profile analysis instrument refractive index distribution measuring.Therefore, this method needs extra equipment and skilled manpower, has increased the cost of making.The operation increase of manufacturing process has also increased the time of processing.
Necessity of the present invention
Therefore, be necessary to study a kind of method of processing multimode optical fibers,, that is to say, can be used as the production line manufacturing process even if this method also can be improved index distribution in processing optical fiber process.Equally, also be necessary to study a kind of method that need not the exciton module, this method still can make to change and is in about 5 microns of the sandwich layer radial position.Also be necessary to study a kind of method of correcting index distribution, this method need not to use the differential mode delay device analysis, thereby has improved economic benefit.
Summary of the invention

Refractive index profile shape 9 is according to conventional methods seen shown in Figure 3.The index distribution that obtains from the distributional analysis instrument has provided the whole α values based on the optimal curve of actual deposition index distribution.Even the whole α values that reached equal ideal value, the change in the manufacturing processed causes specific refractory power local variation radially.Therefore, determining the definite position of these variations in the radial direction, reduce the local variation that specific refractory power directly makes progress then, thereby improve the bandwidth of multimode optical fibers, be very challenging, and method of the present invention has successfully reached these purposes.
The analyser of prefabricated rods provides all α values of the optional position on the plug length direction usually, and profile view is considered the global shape of sandwich layer profile, and 15%~95% the optimal curve that distributes based on the every side actual refractive index shown in the dotted line of prior art Fig. 3.
The plug of manufacturing is loaded on the chuck of prefabricated rods analyser, with refractive Index Distribution Measurement.This prefabricated rods analyser mainly comprises the case that refractive index match liquid is housed, and plug inserts in the described liquid, and having optical maser wavelength is the light unit of 632.8nm, and detector.After measuring beginning, laser beam scans the radially whole of plug.Because the variations in refractive index of plug, light departs from, and by the detector measurement deviation angle.The unit of deviation angle represents with radian.The reconstruction algorithm of 5 microns step-lengths is got in utilization, and the data that will depart from are rebuild into index distribution.Specific refractory power can be by utilizing the profile analysis instrument, and for example the PK2600 of PK technology instrument records about 0.0002.
The profile analysis instrument is with the specific refractory power of the interval measurement sandwich layer in 5 microns of plug stages, and this is equivalent to 0.02 micron of optical fiber stage.For example, in order to make 50 microns multimode optical fiberss, the sandwich layer diameter of plug should be near 13 millimeters, i.e. 13000 micron diameters, thus equal about 0.02 micron of optical fiber stage.
From the prefabricated rods outline data, the technology of the present invention is to determine the index distribution of each stratified sedimentation layer.These index distribution data will be used for determining the footpath upwards peak value and the valley of specific refractory power.In the chemical Vapor deposition process (MCVD) of improvement, the specific refractory power of sandwich layer is rough diametrically, and ripple is arranged.The corresponding settled layer of each described ripple, and can characterize by peak value and valley.Therefore, a crest and a trough are represented a settled layer, and the center line average of a crest and a trough is the specific refractory power of a layer.

D=1+(α-2)/(α+2).Δ.F+(3α-2)/(α+2).(Δ.f) 2/2 (4)
Wherein D is a propagation delay
F=(m/M) g=(r/a) 2g
G=(α/α+2)
α is the alpha parameter of sandwich layer specific refractory power
Δ is the refractive index difference between sandwich layer and the covering, shown in equation (2).
Time lag Figure 16 has shown the time lag that the optical fiber made according to conventional methods directly makes progress and calculated.Among this time lag figure, each settled layer of some expression.Similarly, utilize every layer the desirable α of target,, calculate ideal delay Figure 17 of every layer such as 1.96.Departing between actual delay Figure 15 and ideal delay Figure 21 shown that deposition process is towards the localized variation that has taken place.
In the one embodiment of the invention, correction factor is rule of thumb obtained by the difference that actual mould postpones and ideal mode postpones, correction factor is used to obtain optimum α index distribution by changing every layer of chemicals, for example change doping agent flow or concentration or temperature of reaction, thereby obtain almost identical actual delay figure, with the maximization bandwidth of an optical fiber with ideal delay figure.
In the another embodiment of the present invention, correction factor also can according to the difference experience of desirable layering α and actual layering α obtain, correction factor is used for obtaining optimum α layering index distribution by the chemicals that change is deposited in the pipe, for example flow or concentration or temperature of reaction, thereby the optimum α in reaching every layer is with the bandwidth of maximization multimode optical fibers.
The layering specific refractory power of sandwich layer is used to obtain layering α value and separation time delay figure, and index distribution is changed with the minimizing intermode dispersion, thus the bandwidth of maximization multimode optical fibers.After revising the chemicals flow, make prefabricated rods subsequently, and measure layering index distribution and time lag once more, to correct index distribution.The plug of manufacturing is loaded in the prefabricated rods analyser according to the present invention, with refractive Index Distribution Measurement.Index distribution 10 as shown in Figure 3 is an index distribution of the present invention.According to analyser, utilize the optimal curve of index distribution 9 and 10, the α observed value is respectively 1.95 and 1.96, these two numerical value can be considered equal, but compare with the sandwich layer fringe region of index distribution 9, layering α 12 departs from the target α 11 of central zone, and this will cause the signal delay of the central zone of sandwich layer.According to the present invention,, reduced departing from of layering α 14 relative target α 13 by utilizing the technology of discerning the layering index distribution, determining layering α and definite hierarchical delay figure.
