The invention discloses a heterogeneous
photonic crystal fiber for visible light and near-
infrared bands, and relates to the technical field of
optical fiber communication. The
optical fiber comprises an outer cladding layer, a left middle layer, a right middle layer, a left
fiber core area and a right
fiber core area, wherein a first air hole matrix is arranged in the outer cladding layer. According to the invention, the working bandwidth of the single
photonic crystal fiber is expanded, the optimal working bandwidth range of the right fiber core area working at a short
wavelength covers a complete visible
light wave band, the transmission requirement of the
optical fiber for a high-energy
wave band can be met, and the transmission requirement of the optical fiber for a left fiber core area working at a
long wavelength can be met. The optimal working bandwidth covers the near-
infrared band and comprises 1.55 [mu] m
wavelength which is most commonly used in communication related services, and the working bandwidth can well meet the requirements of communication services, transmission of near-
infrared band optical signals safe to human eyes and research requirements of near-infrared band
nonlinear optics.
