Problems solved by technology

This preparation method is easy to operate, high in precision, and high in yield, but the arrangement of the multi-core optical fiber must be ring-shaped, and the number of rings should not be too many, otherwise the single-mode fiber bundle will be inserted into a single-hole circular sleeve to draw a taper. Finally, there is no guarantee that the natural arrangement of the fiber bundle is exactly the same as the arrangement of the multi-core fiber every time

Abstract

The invention discloses an eight-core optical fiber multiplexing and demultiplexing device and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of optical transmission devices. Holes are punched on a pure silica solid rod according to the core distribution of the eight-core optical fiber to be matched, and the punched The solid rod with the holes completed is drawn to prepare an eight-hole capillary glass sleeve, and the eight single-core optical fibers are inserted into the cleaned eight-hole capillary glass sleeve one by one, and the first tapering is performed so that the eight single-core optical fibers are The eight-hole capillary glass sleeve is fixed; the second taper is performed to make the geometric size of the capillary glass sleeve and the eight single-core optical fiber bundles smaller until the geometric distribution and size of each single-core optical fiber bundle at the taper waist are the same as those to be matched. The geometric distribution and size of the eight-core optical fiber are the same; it is cut at the waist of the cone and aligned with the eight-core optical fiber to be matched. After fusion, all the bare fiber parts are packaged. Realize low insertion loss and low crosstalk connection between eight single-core optical fibers and a single eight-core optical fiber, and realize multiplexing and demultiplexing of optical signals in eight-core optical fibers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of optical transmission devices, and more specifically relates to an eight-core optical fiber multiplexing and demultiplexing device and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In optical communication networks, space-division multiplexing optical fibers have received extensive attention and research because they can increase the transmission capacity of a single optical fiber by an order of magnitude, break the traditional Shannon limit, and achieve higher bandwidth transmission. Multi-core optical fiber is a kind of space-division multiplexing optical fiber. It accommodates multiple cores while the cladding size of single-mode optical fiber is basically the same or slightly larger, which significantly improves the transmission capacity of a single optical fiber. In data centers and high-performance computing systems, optical interconnection technology is widely used to solve the huge demand for h...
