Described fibre core and the material of inner cladding are silica-based glasses sills, and described covering is transparent polymer material Material.
Silica-based glasses material can be silica glass material, or is added with the quartz glass of the additives such as germanium dioxide Material.
Also having one layer of surrounding layer outside described covering, described cladding index is more than cladding refractive index.
The present invention compared with prior art has the advantage that
1, when optical signal transmits in a fiber, main energetic is distributed in fibre core, but still has a small amount of optical signal to be distributed in bag In layer, owing to being mounted with luminous reflectance source in fibre cladding, then this optical signal is reflected back fibre core by luminous reflectance source, and at optical fiber This optical signal can be detected in end, when this optical fiber state changes, such as case of bending, then the most permissible in the end of optical fiber Monitor the change of optical signal, and according to the optical signal changed and the interval of incident optical signal time, it may be determined that the position of change, Reach the purpose of distributed or quasi-distributed monitoring sensing.
2, in described covering, it is not more than the region of 5 microns away from fibre core and covering separating surface and does not adulterate active fluoro Material, only under the conditions of bending, micro-bend or fibre strain etc., incident illumination just has and is partly coupled in covering, in covering These incident illuminations are reflected and couple such as fibre core by the luminous reflectance source disposed, then the incidence end at optical fiber can detect light letter Number change, thus realize distributed or quasi-distributed monitoring sensing purpose.
In sum, the optical fiber structure of the present invention is simple, low cost, purposes are wide, can be used for realizing distributed or quasi-distribution The purpose of formula monitoring sensing, has preferable market prospect.
