Problems solved by technology

Although the structure of the vortex beam generator is very simple, it is very difficult to prepare such an optical fiber. Therefore, the present invention proposes a new helical off-hole fusion core vortex optical fiber. This vortex optical fiber is relatively easy to prepare and can produce similar Vortex beam

Abstract

The invention discloses a vortex optical fiber on basis of a spiral eccentric hole integrating embedded core and a preparation method thereof. The optical fiber is formed by rotating and pulling an optical fiber prefabricated rod with an eccentric hole, and therefore a single-screw air hole exists in the optical fiber. Because of the asymmetric optical fiber structure, asymmetric stress birefringence of spiral distribution can be generated in the fiber core of the optical fiber, conduction optical waves can form radial phase differences, orbital angular momentum is obtained, transmission of a vortex phase position optical field is generated, and a vortex-like optical transmission mode is formed. The whole optical fiber has the advantages of being simple in structure, flexible in operation, stable in system, high in antijamming capability and the like, and can be used for vortex light beam generation, particle control, sensing application and other aspects.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of optical fiber technology, and in particular relates to a helical off-hole fusion-embedded vortex optical fiber and a preparation method thereof. (2) Background technology [0002] A remarkable feature of vortex beams is that they have orbital angular momentum (Physical Review A, 1992, 45(11): 8185-8189), so they have been widely studied in recent years and have been widely used in communication, optical tweezers, atom manipulation and microscopy has been greatly applied. The most common way to generate vortex beams is to use spatial light modulators (OpticsExpress, 2008, 16(21): 16984-16992), however, spatial light modulators are generally bulky, expensive, and require optical coupling in free space , which causes a lot of inconvenience. [0003] The optical fiber-based vortex light generator has more advantages in the realization of remote interaction and compact vortex optical devices. Researchers have rea...
