Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of cable manufacturing, and particularly relates to an elliptical core-bow-tie type single-polarization-structure optical fiber and a manufacturing method thereof.
Background
The common optical fiber is designed in a symmetrical cylindrical structure, but in practical application, the common optical fiber is subjected to mechanical stress to become asymmetrical, and a birefringence phenomenon is generated, so that the polarization state of light is irregularly changed when the light is transmitted in the common optical fiber. The main influencing factors of the change are wavelength, bending degree, temperature and the like. The polarization maintaining fiber can solve the problem of polarization state change, but it cannot eliminate the birefringence phenomenon in the fiber, and instead, through the design of the geometric dimension of the fiber, produces stronger birefringence effect to eliminate the influence of stress on the polarization state of the incident light. Polarization maintaining optical fibers are generally used in applications that are sensitive to the polarization state, such as interferometers, or lasers, or in the connection between the light source and an external modulator, etc.
The single polarization fiber is a special polarization-maintaining fiber, the structure design of which enables the single polarization fiber to be transmitted only in a certain polarization direction, and the mode in the direction orthogonal to the single polarization fiber is cut or leaked, so that the single polarization fiber has the function of a polarizer when in use. Single polarization fibers can be implemented using many different operating principles. Common methods include an elliptical core structure, an elliptical core auxiliary air hole, an elliptical core auxiliary elliptical cladding, stress element polarization (including a photonic crystal cladding structure), and the like, and products including single-polarization optical fibers manufactured by adopting a bow-tie type structure and further manufactured as jumper wires are common, and the purpose is to introduce strong birefringence and cut-off wavelength related to polarization, so that guided waves in only one polarization direction can be conducted, and other polarization optical fibers are used as leakage waveguides.
However, the traditional single polarization fiber needs to independently deposit a stress element and perform a stress element punching process on a preform, so that the risk of independent stress element cracking exists, the process is limited to the current research and development process of only applying a panda type stress element, the bottleneck is that the fiber core of the bow-tie type polarization maintaining fiber manufactured by the traditional method is circular, only the process of directly depositing the stress element and then depositing the fiber core is adopted, the process cannot control the direction of the long axis and the short axis of the elliptical fiber core, and the maximum superposition of the polarization effects of the bow-tie type polarization maintaining fiber and the elliptical core cannot be ensured, so that the polarization effect can be generated only by the stress element. The bow-tie type stress element has been proved to have better stress polarization effect than the panda type, can provide better polarization maintaining effect for polarized light, coincide the slow axis that bow-tie type stress element formed with the slow axis that oval fibre core formed, can exert stress to the fibre core more concentratedly to furthest promotes birefringence.
