Abstract

The invention provides a layered doped step type weak coupling gain equalization four-mode erbium-doped optical fiber. The refractive indexes of the fiber core and the cladding of the optical fiber are integrally kept in a step type, the fiber core part is two or more layers of concentric circles which are adjacent in sequence, and the erbium-doped concentrations of the layers are different. The part with insufficient refractive index or surplus of each layer is supplemented or eliminated through co-doped elements. According to the optical fiber, under the condition that the number of modes isclose to that of transmission optical fibers, the mode gain difference is effectively reduced, and the good mode gain equalization characteristic is achieved. Meanwhile, due to the proper selection of the refractive index and radius of the optical fiber, the refractive index difference between the modes is large, the mode crosstalk is effectively reduced, and the application in optical communication and optical wavelength division multiplexing systems is facilitated.
