Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical fibers, in particular to an optical fiber with a large effective area. Background technique [0002] Optical fiber strength is one of the key indicators of ultra-low loss optical fiber, which is mainly reflected in the screening strain. The strain of ordinary optical fiber is generally about 1% to deal with the tension caused by laying and thermal expansion and contraction, while ultra-low loss optical fiber is used in ultra-long In distance optical communication links, it is often necessary to cross harsh environments such as Gobi and deep sea. When considering laying or environmental temperature changes, the tension suffered is greater than that of ordinary optical cables. Considering the national standard of "Deep Sea Optical Cable", the difficulty of laying and In terms of service life, etc., it is hoped that the strain of the ultra-low loss optical fiber will reach 2% or more, which can fully meet the ...

Problems solved by technology

The impurity particles adhere to the surface of the optical fiber. During the cooling process, cracks and stress concentration are formed. The cracks on the optical fiber surface are gradually eroded by the action of water molecules in the atmospheric environment, resulting in the destruction of the silicon-oxygen tetrahedral structure, and the breakage of the silicon-oxygen bond will expand the microcracks. range, which affects fiber strength
