preparation example Construction

[0036] A method for preparing an optical fiber for vortex beam transmission and maintenance, which is used to prepare the above-mentioned optical fiber for vortex beam transmission and maintenance, comprising the following steps:

[0037] Step 1, using a deposition method to deposit an inner cladding 2 on the fiber core 1, and then depositing an outer cladding 3 on the inner cladding 2 to form an optical fiber preform to be sintered;

[0038] Step 2, sintering the optical fiber preform at high temperature to form an optical fiber preform to be drawn;

[0039] In step 3, the optical fiber preform is drawn, and at the same time rotated along the axis of the optical fiber preform so that the pitch range is within 0.05-10 mm, and the preparation of the optical fiber is completed.

[0040] In step 1, the deposition method is one or any of improved chemical vapor deposition, furnace chemical vapor deposition, plasma chemical vapor deposition, external vapor deposition, axial vapor d...

[0045] see figure 2 , image 3 and Figure 4 , the manufacturing steps of an optical fiber applied to vortex beam transmission are as follows:

[0046] Firstly, a germanium-doped cladding layer with high refractive index distribution is sequentially deposited by an improved chemical vapor deposition method, and then a small amount of fluoride or boride quartz inner cladding layer is deposited, or pure quartz is used as the core layer.

[0047] Through chemical vapor deposition technology, high-temperature sintering into a solid or hollow optical fiber preform with a certain pore structure, the core diameter and outer diameter of the preform are 2mm and 15mm respectively;

[0048] The optical fiber preform is drawn into an optical fiber in a drawing tower, and the diameters of the core 1 and the inner cladding 2 are respectively a 1 and a 2 , and rotate along the axis of the optical fiber preform while drawing, and the pitch here is 1.5 mm. Finally, the spinning fiber is ...
