Definitions

  • the present invention relates to optical fibers, and to devices comprising such fibers. It also relates to the field of photonic crystals. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • An optical fiber is a long, thin strand of transparent material. Its shape is usually similar to a cylinder (when not bent). In the center, it has a core. Around the core is a layer or a layered system called cladding. The core and the cladding are made of different kinds of glass, plastic or other materials. A plastic coating, called the buffer, usually covers the cladding to protect it. Often, the buffered fiber is put inside an even tougher layer, called the jacket. This makes it easy to use the fiber without breaking it.
  • a single-mode (SM) optical fiber is an optical fiber designed to carry only one optical mode. Modes are the possible solutions of Maxwell's equations with appropriate boundary conditions. These modes define the way the electromagnetic fields are distributed in space. Two or more waves can have the same mode while having different frequencies. In single-mode fibers, there can be waves with different frequencies, but of the same mode, which means that they are distributed in space in the same way.
  • the light in a fiber is confined not only in the core, but extends also into the cladding. Moreover, its intensity is non-uniformly distributed in the cross-section of the fiber.
  • the effective mode area is defined to provide some characteristic of the area in he cross-section of the fiber, occupied by light. Usually, it is defined as
  • Optical fibers are used most often as a means to transmit light between the two ends of the fiber and find wide usage in fiber-optic communications. Fibers are also used for illumination, carrying images (thus allowing viewing in confined spaces, as in the case of a fiberscope) and fiber optic sensors.
  • Optical fibers are also frequently used as optical amplifiers. For example, this allows an optical signal to travel further distances, without converting the optical signal to an electrical signal and then back to an optical signal.
  • These optical amplifiers are also used in fiber lasers. They can be very powerful, because a long thin fiber is easy to keep cool, and produce a good quality light beam.
  • LMA fibers large effective mode areas
  • these fibers Due to the large mode area, these fibers have reduced optical intensities compared to regular fibers. Therefore, they effectively have lower nonlinearities and a higher damage threshold, which makes them suitable, e.g. for the amplification of intense pulses in fiber amplifiers (e.g. ultra-short pulses), for high-power fiber lasers (which are used, for instance, in material processing such as car manufacturing) and for delivery of intense light.

  • the refractive indexes of some elements of the primary cladding layer are higher than that of the inner cladding materials, or the core when the inner cladding is absent.
  • the refractive indexes of some elements of the primary cladding are also higher than the refractive index of the outer cladding materials, or the buffer when the outer cladding is absent.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une fibre optique qui possède un cœur et une gaine. Une couche de gaine primaire dans la gaine présente un réseau périodique de trous ou d'intrusions. La couche de gaine primaire inclut au moins un matériau ayant un indice de réfraction supérieur à un indice de réfraction d'une ou plusieurs couches adjacentes à ladite couche de gaine primaire, de sorte que cette couche de gaine primaire conserve un mode optique prédéfini. Le réseau périodique de trous ou d'intrusions permet un couplage entre un mode optique à l'intérieur de la couche de gaine primaire et la lumière dans des couches adjacentes, et il confine par conséquent la lumière dans le cœur grâce à une anti-résonance lors de la transmission.
