Description of the Related Art An optical communication system is composed of a light emitting section, a relay section, and a light receiving section, which are connected by optical fibers. The relay section compensates for transmission loss and pulse spread when the transmitted signal light propagates through the fiber.
Conventionally, the configuration was such that signal light was once converted into an electrical signal and compensated, and then converted into signal light using a semiconductor laser. However, this relay section has the drawbacks of being extremely complex and expensive. Recently, attempts have been made to fabricate a fiber-type optical amplifier in which a rare earth element is used as a light emitting source and doped into a host glass, thereby directly amplifying signal light with a wavelength of 1.3 or 1.55 μm. ing.

■は表1に示す■〜■の組成の光ファイバに対応する。A fluoride optical fiber according to claim 1 of the present invention has at least a core made of fluoride glass containing beryllium fluoride (BeF2) and praseodymium (Pr). The fluoride optical fiber according to claim 2 of the present invention is characterized in that the fluoride glass according to claim 1 contains 60 mole percent or more of BeF2. The fluoride optical fiber according to claim 3 of the present invention is characterized in that the fluoride glass according to claim 2 contains aluminum (Al). In the fluoride optical fiber according to claim 4 of the present invention, the core composition is BeF2 (91 mole percent or more) + PrF3
(2 mole percent or less) + AlF3 (7 mole percent
cent or less). As a result of intensive research prior to the development of the fluoride optical fiber of the present invention, the inventors of the present invention found that by using beryllium fluoride (BeF2) glass doped with praseodymium (Pr), light at 1.30 μm was produced. We have discovered that amplification is possible. FIG. 3 shows the results of investigating the relationship between the BeF2 concentration in this glass and the wavelength that can be amplified, using a composition that yields a transparent Pr-doped glass without crystallization. ■■■■ of the same figure

ためにはBeF2 濃度は60mol%以上がよい。As is clear from FIG. 3, when the BeF2 concentration is less than 60 mol percent (mol%), the wavelength that can be amplified shifts to the longer wavelength side due to the influence of other added cations. . The amplification wavelength is 1.
The reason for the shift from 30 to 1.31 μm or more is expected to be that cations other than Be in the glass affect the electronic level of Pr. Therefore, in order to amplify light at 1.30 μm, the BeF2 concentration is preferably 60 mol% or more.

り小さい屈折率の材料であることが必要とされる。[0008] The inventors of the present invention have conducted further research to increase the gain of the fluoride optical fiber of the present invention, and have found that adding Al may cause the Pr in the glass to be further dispersed, increasing the gain. Thought. As a result of confirming this through experiments,
As will be explained in detail in the examples below, an appropriate amount of AlF
By using BeF2 doped with PrF3 and PrF3, a high gain fiber could be obtained. As a result of investigating the composition of glass from which high-gain fibers can be obtained, the appropriate region is BeF2 (91 mol% or more) + PrF3
(2 mol% or less)+AlF3 (7 mol% or less). The gain increased as the PrF3 concentration in the glass increased, but it remained almost constant at 2 mol% or more. Considering that Pr is expensive, it is preferred industrially that the PrF3 concentration be 2 mol% or less. The reason why AlF3 is 7 mol % or less is that if more than this is added, the glass frequently becomes cloudy during dissolution and cooling. On the other hand, clad glass is made of Be with a suitable amount of AlF3 added together with PrF3.
F2, single BeF2, or other materials may be used. However, since light travels through the optical fiber, the material needs to have a refractive index smaller than that of the core glass.
