Abstract

An optical fiber is produced so as to have ring-shape refractive index profile such that chromatic dispersion is between + 6 ps / nm / km or larger and smaller than + 15 ps / nm / km in 1550 nm wavelength, the transmission loss is smaller than 0.210 dB / km, effective cross sectional area Aeff is larger than 90 mu m<2>, dispersion slope is in a range of 0.05 ps / nm<2> / km and 0.08 ps / nm<2> / km. By doing this, an optical fiber having ring-shaped refractive index profile, enlarged effective cross sectional area, restricted dispersion slope, and low loss characteristics can be provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an optical fiber, in particular, the present invention relates to such an optical fiber, it is enlarged effective cross-sectional area A eff , in order to be used in long-distance multi-wavelength transmission systems, and the dispersion slope is limited. Background technique [0002] The transmission capacity of an optical fiber can be greatly increased by using a wavelength division multiplexing (hereinafter referred to as WDM) method. In the WDM approach, there is a need to reduce nonlinear effects and control dispersion in optical fibers used for data transmission. Many different optical fibers have been developed for this purpose, for example: effective cross-sectional area A eff Expanded optical fiber, optical fiber with reduced dispersion slope and optical fiber for compensating dispersion slope. [0003] In order to use the WDM method to increase the transmission capacity of the optical fiber, there are usual...
