More Information
Summary:An optical fiber includes, from inside to outside, a core layer, a buffer cladding layer, a recessed cladding layer, a deep fluorine doped layer, an external cladding layer, and a coating layer. The core layer is germanium doped silica. A refractive index difference between the core layer and silica is 0.37 % to 0.5 %. A refractive index of the buffer cladding layer gradual changes along the buffer cladding layer. A refractive index difference between an internal interface of the buffer cladding layer contacting with the core layer and silica is -0.05 % to 0.1 %. A refractive index of an external interface of the buffer cladding layer contacting with the recessed cladding layer is equal to a refractive index of the recessed cladding layer. A refractive index difference between the recessed cladding layer and silica is -0.12 % to -0.2 %. A refractive index difference between the deep fluorine doped layer and silica is -0.3 % to -0.5 %. The external cladding layer is made of silica. The coating layer is coated outside the external cladding layer. The optical fiber has large mode field diameter and good bending resistance.
