Problems solved by technology

The disadvantages of the stacking method for preparing photonic crystal fiber preforms are: (1) During the stacking process, it is difficult to arrange the capillaries precisely as required; (2) Due to the air gap between the capillaries, the air remains between the capillary and the capillary interface during the shrinking process, resulting in There are bubble defects, and there are obvious interface defects between the capillary and capillary interfaces
The disadvantages of preparing photonic crystal fiber preforms by casting method are: (1) The air hole arrangement accuracy of photonic crystal fiber preforms prepared by casting method is affected by the arrangement accuracy of quartz capillary hollow rods, and it is difficult for quartz capillary hollow rods to meet the accuracy requirements; (2 ) Production of chalcogenide glass photonic crystal fiber preforms by casting

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a multihole infrared chalcogenide glass photonic crystal optical fiber preform. According to the method, a high-precision optical two-dimensional positioning platform is adopted for fixing a glass bar for mechanical drilling, various series of air holes can be accurately drilled, and the defect of inaccurate arrangement of the air holes by a stacking and drawing method and a casting method is solved. By utilizing the method, a diamond twist drill is adopted in the drilling process, a glass material is cut by a sharp spiral knife-edge in the high-speed revolution process, an efficient cooling system is adopted in the drilling process, heat generated in the drilling process is efficiently taken away by constantly flowing cooling liquid, and heat of the photonic crystal optical fiber preform in the drilling process is conveniently dissipated. Based on the reasons, the method is suitable for preparing the chalcogenide glass photonic crystal optical fiber preform with high expansion factors. By utilizing the method, the problem of embrittlement due to too large expansion coefficient difference between chalcogenide glass and a quartz tube in the casting method is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a photonic crystal optical fiber preform, in particular to a method for preparing a porous infrared chalcogenide glass photonic crystal optical fiber preform. Background technique [0002] Photonic crystal fiber (PCF, also known as microstructured fiber or holey fiber) is a new type of optical fiber composed of different arrangements of air holes running through the entire fiber in the fiber cladding. This special structure of the cladding makes it compatible with Compared with the traditional structural fiber, it has some unique optical characteristics, such as unlimited single mode, controllable dispersion, high birefringence, high nonlinearity, large mode field, etc. Compared with quartz glass, chalcogenide glass has higher refractive index (2.0-3.5), extremely low phonon energy (less than 350cm -1 ), excellent mid-to-far infrared transmission performance, and a wide range of adjustable components.
