Abstract

The invention relates to energy transfer optical fibers. The technical problem to be solved is to provide a high anti-damage energy transfer optical fiber and a manufacturing method, which can solve the problems of low numerical aperture, high loss, low damage threshold value, high manufacturing cost and the like of the energy transfer optical fiber, and the manufactured optical fiber has high anti-damage capability and can transmit high-power laser. The invention is characterized in that the material of the optical fiber is pure quartz; the material of a cladding is a low-refractivity organic compound; and the material of an outer protection layer is a high-modulus organic compound. The pure quartz has theoretical maximum damage threshold value and low loss, and the cladding made of the low-refractivity material enables the optical fiber to have extremely high numerical aperture, so that the optical fiber has small transmission loss, high damage threshold value, strong bending-resistant performance and capability of transmitting the high-power laser. The high anti-damage energy transfer optical fiber is manufactured through drawing by directly utilizing a synthesized pure quartz pipe or bar as a fiber core, and an optical cladding is directly coated in the wire drawing process, so that the manufacturing process of the optical fiber is simplified, and the manufacturing cost is greatly lowered.
