Abstract

The invention discloses a novel high birefringence high non-linearity photonic crystal fiber. The photonic crystal fiber comprises a negative dispersion flat characteristic. The photonic crystal fiber is in a full-elliptical air hole structure. By changing the angles of the first layer of the elliptical holes, the sixfold rotation symmetry of the photonic crystal fiber is destroyed, and accordingly, high birefringence is obtained, and outstanding non-linearity and dispersion performances can be obtained. Due to the change of the air hole structure parameters, the birefringence of the photonic crystal fiber is higher than that of traditional polarization maintaining optical fibers by two magnitude orders, and high non-linearity coefficients are obtained in the X and Y polarization directions. Besides, a negative dispersion flat region approximate to 550nm ranging from 1000nm to 1550nm can be obtained. The photonic crystal fiber has wide application prospects in fields of polarization control, non-linear optics and optical fiber communications.

Embodiment
A kind of novel high birefringence high non-linearity has the photonic crystal fiber of negative smooth dispersion simultaneously, cross-sectional structure as shown in Figure 1, include pure quartzy background 1, in the oval airport defect 2 that fibre core is introduced, by the covering 3 of triangular crystal lattice arrangement, two oval airports 5 and 6 of half-twist in ground floor in oval airport 4 large in covering and covering, major axis and the minor axis of little oval airport 1 are respectively d yand d x, major axis and the minor axis of large oval airport 4 are respectively D yand D x, the ellipticity of the oval airport of size is η=D y/ D x=d y/ d x, the pitch of holes of oval airport is Λ, D x=0.6 Λ.In addition, little oval airport 1 is positioned at the geometric center of this structure, and oval airport 5 is vertical with the major axis (minor axis) of oval airport 1 with the major axis (minor axis) of 6, and oval airport 5 and oval airport 6 are symmetrical about the major axis of oval airport 1.The birefringence effect of this structural formula photonic crystal fiber is more strong, light beam can be made simultaneously to be more gathered in fibre core and be conducive to obtaining high non-linearity and having excellent negative smooth dispersion characteristics.Getting airport refractive index is 1, and the refractive index of quartz is obtained by document " Interspecimen Comparison of the Refractive Index of Fused Silica ".
In PCF, the energy of light wave transmits in fibre core with the form of basic mode, and therefore whether the mode distributions of basic mode concentrates on fibre core, is the benchmark weighing PCF characteristic quality.Fig. 2 is in λ=1.55 μm, Λ=1.4 μm, D x=0.6 Λ, d x=D xduring/3, η=2, the electric-field intensity distribution figure of basic mode on X and Y polarization direction.As can be seen from Figure, when λ=1.55 μm, the light-wave energy of X and Y polarization direction all can be bound in fibre core very well.
Birefringent characteristic of the present invention
When pitch of holes Λ is different, the birefringence of PCF along with wavelength variations curve as shown in Figure 3.As we know from the figure, the birefringence of PCF reduces along with the increase of Λ, increases along with the increase of wavelength.Therefore, in order to a μm place obtains higher birefringence in wavelength X=1.55, the size of Λ should be reduced as far as possible.When pitch of holes Λ=1.4 μm, D x=0.6 Λ, d x=D xduring/3, η=2, the birefringence that this PCF is 1.55 μm at wavelength can reach 3.05 × 10 -2, the birefringence in 800nm to 2300nm wave band all keeps 10 -2the order of magnitude.
Nonlinear characteristic of the present invention
As shown in Figure 4, show when pitch of holes Λ is different, the nonlinear factor of PCF on X and Y polarization direction is with the change curve of wavelength, and as seen from the figure, nonlinear factor increases along with Λ and reduces, and reduces with the increase of wavelength.Therefore the structural parameters of PCF can be designed according to the needs of nonlinear factor.In pitch of holes Λ=1.4 μm, D x=0.6 Λ, d x=D xduring/3, η=2, the nonlinear factor of X and Y polarization state is respectively 43.6W -1km -1with 41.71 W -1km -1, this structure is while having high birefringence, and nonlinear factor is also higher.The PCFs with high non-linearity effect has significant application value in high power pulse compression, optical soliton communication, super continuous spectrums generation etc.
Dispersion characteristics of the present invention
PCFs dispersion can cause light wave broadening in communication process, and by the distortion directly causing light signal in Optical Fiber Transmission process, dispersion has very adverse influence to fibre-optic transmission system (FOTS), limits the increase of system transfer rate and transmission range.Fig. 5 is under different pitch of holes, and the total dispersion of PCF is with the curve map of wavelength variations.Can find out, and along with the increase of pitch of holes Λ, the wave band of negative smooth dispersion broadens.Be Λ=1.6 μm at structural parameters, D x=0.6 Λ, d x=D xduring/3, η=2, PCF not only has 2.69 × 10 -2high birefringence, between the 1000-1550nm simultaneously in near-infrared band, there are good negative smooth dispersion characteristics, can be used for dispersion compensation, to ensure that the total dispersion of fibre circuit is approximately zero, thus realization high speed, Large Copacity, long haul communication.
The foregoing is only one embodiment of the present invention, it not whole or unique embodiment, the conversion of those of ordinary skill in the art by reading instructions of the present invention to any equivalence that technical solution of the present invention is taked, is claim of the present invention and contains.
