Abstract

Fluoride glass and a preparing method thereof are disclosed. The fluoride glass includes, in mole percentages, 16-70% of ZrF4, 13-32% of BaF2, 5-18% of MF, 0-14% of MeF2 and 0-28% of MfF3, wherein the M is one or two selected from Na and Li, the Me is one or more selected from Zn, Mg and Ca, and the Mf is one or two selected from Al and La. The fluoride glass has a low cost and is suitable for applications in optical windows of near ultraviolet to middle-infrared wavebands. The cutoff wavelength of the prepared glass is greater than 6 [mu]m. The glass has good glass forming capacity, and is suitable for preparing matrix glass of infrared laser fibers and fiber optic amplifiers and other optical materials. The glass has good glass forming capacity, good chemical stability, and low theoretical loss and is suitable for preparing matrixes of low-loss fluoride fibers and doped fibers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of glass, and more specifically relates to a fluoride glass and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Glass optical fiber with fluoride as the main material has a wider spectral range (0.2-7um) and better mid-infrared optical transmittance than traditional optical fibers, which means that it can be obtained in optical fiber communication systems Larger bandwidth; in addition, fluoride glass has low refractive index, high Abbe number and low nonlinear refractive index, which is an ideal light window material and ultra-low loss infrared optical fiber material, and has great application value. The optical fiber drawn from such fluoride glass can carry a larger optical bandwidth. At the same time, due to its extremely low theoretical loss limit (0.001dB / km), it is widely used in long-distance optical fiber communication, especially in transoceanic communication. application prospects. In addition, ...
