Abstract

A preparation method of a core rod of a Yb doped quartz fiber preform. Employing a sol gel method, the preparation method prepares a rare earth doped silicon oxide powder by starting from a solution; the powder is subjected to decarburization, dehydroxylation and ball milling; and the treated powder is sintered into glass, which is processed into the core rod. The core rod obtained by the method can be used in preparation of double cladding Yb doped quartz fiber with large size, high uniformity and large mode field, and photonic crystal with large mode field and doped with Yb quartz fiber, so as to realize high laser efficiency.
