Embodiment 1

[0021] Example 1 figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of a single-channel cross-section of a low-nonlinear coefficient mode division multiplexer of the present invention, and the single-channel cross-section of the multiplexer is generally composed of a pure silica matrix cladding and a doped silica core; The circle radii are denoted as R1 and R2 respectively, corresponding to the outer diameter of the core and the outer diameter of the cladding in turn, where R1=38 µm and R2=100 µm. The channel core radius and refractive index distribution are designed to be balanced; the channel cladding and core center refractive indices are 1.4440 and 1.4449 respectively; the refractive index from the channel core center to the cladding changes gradually, and is set according to equation (1). The characteristics of the mode division multiplexer are studied by full vector finite element method and beam propagation method.
