Abstract

The invention relates to a radiation-resistant high-performance silica fiber and a preparation method thereof. The radiation-resistant high-performance silica fiber provided by the invention is composed of a silica glass material based fiber core, an inner cladding and an outer cladding, wherein the fiber core contains 0-2000ppm of hydroxyl group and 0-1000ppm of fluorine, the inner cladding is doped with 10000-20000ppm of fluorine, and the outer cladding is silica glass containing 1000-6000ppm of fluorine. The radiation-resistant high-performance silica fiber provided by the invention can beprepared by adopting a combined process method of VAD (vapour axial deposition) and MCVD (modified chemical vapour deposition) or PCVD (plasma chemical vapour deposition), namely a core layer is prepared by adopting VAD firstly, and different deposition and vitrifaction technological conditions are controlled to obtain core rods with different hydroxyl group and fluorine contents, the inner cladding doped with fluorine is prepared by adopting an MCVD or PCVD process, a sleeve containing a low-refractive index inner cladding is obtained, and then the core rods and the obtained sleeve are fusedinto a prefabricated rod or combined into a prefabricated rod assembly, and finally direct wire drawing is carried out to obtain the silica fiber. The silica fiber can be used for information transmission of a communication system, especially can be used as both a radiation-resistant optical fiber to guarantee long-distance communication and an energy transmitting optical fiber for transmitting ultraviolet light under the radiation environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a silica optical fiber and a manufacturing method thereof, in particular to a radiation-resistant high-performance silica optical fiber and a manufacturing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of optical fibers. Background technique [0002] In aerospace, nuclear industry, military, biomedicine, lithography, mechanical micromachining, modern medical treatment, ultraviolet curing and other strong radiation environments, optical fiber technology has been more and more widely used. In the radiation state, the attenuation of the conventional core germanium-doped fiber increases significantly due to radiation induction, and the transmission performance deteriorates, so it is not suitable for applications in these fields. For this reason, the development of radiation-resistant optical fiber has become a research hotspot in the world. [0003] Radiation-resistant optical fiber refers to an optical fiber that can resist th...
