Embodiment 1

[0030] 1. Preparation of tellurite glass: core fiber glass 30TeO 2 -40WO 3 -5BaO-15La 2 o 3 -10GeO 2 , cladding glass: 30TeO 2 -38WO 3 -5BaO-15La 2 o 3 -12GeO 2 , according to the mole percentage, and mix them evenly;

[0031] 2. Then put it into a platinum or gold crucible for melting, the melting temperature is 1100°C, then pour it into a preheated steel mold, put it into an annealing furnace, and heat it at T g Keep warm near the point for 5 hours, then drop to 100°C at 1°C / hour, then turn off the power of the annealing furnace, and let it cool down to room temperature naturally;

[0040] The composition of tellurate glass, the glass preparation process is the same as that in Example 1. Aluminophosphate glass is selected as the outer cladding glass sleeve, and a tellurate glass thin rod is drawn at 600°C, and the obtained thin rod is inserted into the aluminophosphate glass. A composite glass optical fiber preform is formed in the casing, and a tellurite glass composite optical fiber with a core of 80 μm and an outer diameter of the optical fiber of 2000 μm is made by drawing at 600° C.

[0041] The test shows that the transmission loss of the optical fiber at 1310nm is 0.1dB / m.

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method for tellurate glass compound optical fibers. According to the preparation method, an outer coating layer is made of phosphoaluminate glass or lead silicate glass; core fiber glass and inner coating layer glass are made of tellurate glass; the core fiber glass is drawn into a thin rod and is inserted into a glass sleeve prepared from the inner coating layer glass; a core rod with the coating layer glass is drawn on a wire drawing machine; the prepared core rod is inserted into an outer coating layer glass sleeve prepared from the phosphoaluminate glass or the lead silicate glass to be drawn into the multi-coating-layer tellurate glass compound optical fibers. The preparation method has the advantages that the tellurate glass compound optical fibers with high mechanical strength can be prepared and the disadvantages of traditional tellurate glass optical fibers that the fragility is great, and the traditional tellurate glass optical fibers are easy to crack and are not easy to operate are overcome; meanwhile, the good middle infrared transmission capability of the tellurate glass is remained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber, in particular to a preparation method of a tellurite glass composite optical fiber. Background technique [0002] 2-5μm mid-infrared laser fiber and transmission fiber have important application prospects in biomedicine, spectroscopy, remote sensing measurement, lidar, next-generation optical communication and other fields. Due to the molecular vibration absorption loss of traditional silica optical fiber, the infrared cut-off edge is only ~2.4 μm, so the mid-infrared glass optical fiber that can transmit in the 2-5 μm band has attracted great attention. Among many glass materials, tellurite glass fiber has low phonon energy (~800cm -1 ), wide infrared transmission range (0.4-5.5μm), good chemical stability and high nonlinear coefficient, it can be used as mid-infrared laser fiber and transmission fiber, or as a nonlinear fiber for generating supercontinuum, which has great application value . [0003] The ...
