Embodiment 1

[0011] In this embodiment, to realize the optical fiber with a shorter transmission wavelength in the terahertz frequency band with the structure shown in Figure 1, the structural parameters are: r 0 = 10mm, n 2 = 1.52 (high density polyethylene), n 1 = 1, d 2 = 25 μm, d 1 =500 μm, N=3. According to the absorption spectrum of high-density polyethylene in the terahertz frequency band [Chem.Phys.Lett., Vol.10, No.4, PP.473-477, 1971], TE 01 Mode transmission loss (structural bound loss plus material absorption loss) is shown in Table 1. It can be seen from Table 1 that in the wavelength range of 70 μm to 200 μm, they are all below 4.1dB / km, while TE 01 The transmission loss of the mode at 90μm is as low as 0.463dB / km.

Embodiment 2

[0015] In this embodiment, to realize the optical fiber with a longer transmission wavelength in the terahertz frequency band with the structure shown in Figure 1, the structural parameters are: r 0 = 20mm, n 2 = 1.52 (high density polyethylene), n 1 = 1, d 2 = 150 μm, d 1 =2250 μm, N=3. TE 01 The transmission loss of the mode is shown in Table 2. It can be seen from Table 2 that in the wavelength range of 400 μm to 1100 μm, they are all below 4.5dB / km, while TE 01 The transmission loss of the mode at 550μm is as low as 1.071dB / km.

Embodiment 3

[0019] In this embodiment, to realize the optical fiber with the transmission wavelength in the middle of the terahertz frequency band with the structure shown in Figure 1, the structural parameters are: r 0 = 14mm, n 2 = 1.52 (high density polyethylene), n 1 = 1, d 2 = 70 μm, d 1 =1050 μm, N=3. TE 01 The transmission loss of the mode is shown in Table 3. It can be seen from Table 3 that in the wavelength range of 200 μm to 550 μm, they are all below 4.5dB / km, while TE 01 The transmission loss of the mode at 280μm is as low as 1.262dB / km.

Abstract

This invention relates to one special fiber and to one with low consumption of Hertz wave, which is characterized by the following: realizing THz wave transmission within range of 30 mum-3mm; using current two steps or one step to produce and the fiber materials can adopt plastic materials as base materials to absorb consumption, such as high intensity HDPE, low intensity LDPE, Teflon or TPX or polypropylene non polarization polymer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a special optical fiber, in particular to a low-loss optical fiber capable of realizing terahertz waves. Background technique [0002] Terahertz (THz) waves with a frequency range of about 0.1 to 10 THz (wavelength about 3000 μm to 30 μm) are an important frequency band and the last frequency band to be developed in the electromagnetic spectrum. For a long time, due to the lack of effective THz radiation generation and detection methods, it has been in the gap state between microwave and far infrared. Due to a series of characteristics of THz wave and its important application value in spectrum, imaging, medical diagnosis, communication and radar, celestial bodies and basic physics research, it has attracted the attention of all countries in the world; and from March 14 to 16, 2005 The Optical THz Science and Technology Symposium was held in Florida, USA on the 1st. Consequently, many important advances have been made in the ...
