An all-optical-fiber adjustable optical attenuator comprises a single-mode optical fiber, a first multi-mode optical fiber, a second multi-mode optical fiber and a sleeve. The single-mode optical fiber is used for receiving signal light; the first multi-mode optical fiber is used for receiving the signal light output by the single-mode optical fiber, a coating layer and a cladding of the first multi-mode optical fiber are removed, and the first multi-mode optical fiber is coated with a polymer again; the second multi-mode optical fiber is used for receiving and outputting the signal light output by the first multi-mode optical fiber; the sleeve is used for placing the first multi-mode optical fiber. The refractive index of the polymer is larger than that of a fiber core of the first multi-mode optical fiber, one end of the single-mode optical fiber is connected with one end of the first multi-mode optical fiber, the other end of the first multi-mode optical fiber is connected with one end of the second multi-mode optical fiber, the other end of the second multi-mode optical fiber is a signal light output end, the other end of the single-mode optical module is a signal light input end, the optical axis of the single-mode optical fiber, the optical axis of the first multi-mode optical fiber and the optical axis of the second multi-mode optical fiber are located on the same straight line, the first multi-mode optical fiber is located in the sleeve, and a temperature control device used for adjusting the temperature in the sleeve is arranged outside the sleeve. The structure of the optical attenuator is simplified, and the requirement for mechanical performance is low.
Description
technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical fields of optical fiber communication and optical fiber sensing, in particular to an all-fiber adjustable optical attenuator. Background technique [0002] Optical attenuator is an important passive device used to attenuate optical power, and has important applications in the fields of optical communication and optical sensing. It can be used in signal attenuation of communication system, index measurement of optical fiber system and system test and other occasions. According to different working principles, the current optical attenuators can be divided into displacement optical attenuators, attenuation sheet optical attenuators, and photoelectric conversion optical attenuators, etc., but these optical attenuators generally have complex structures and high mechanical performance requirements. question. Contents of the invention [0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing optical attenuator ...
