Abstract

We describe the design and characterization of solid core large mode area bandgap fibers exhibiting low propagation loss and low bend loss. The fibers have been prepared by modified chemical vapor deposition process. The bandgap guidance obtained thanks to a 3-bilayer periodic cladding is assisted by a very slight index step (5.10-4) in the solid core. The propagation loss reaches a few dB/km and is found to be close to material loss.

Fig. 2. (a) Refractive index profile and electric field intensity distribution of designed fiber. (b) Effective index ne of the Bragg mode versus the wavelength compared to clad (pure-silica) index n2 and core (raised) index n1 = n2 + ∆ncore showing n2 < ne < n1 for λ < 0.85 μm, evidencing total-internal-reflection mechanism. (c) Radial electric field distribution canceling at low-/n → high-/n transitions and maximum at high-/n → low-/n transitions characteristic of the bandgap waveguidance mechanism. (d) Confinement loss computed at λ = 0.8 μm versus ∆ncore. ∆n in the cladding layers is 15.10-3. Also reported is the material loss.

Fig. 3. Refractive index profile and electric field intensity distribution in two fabricated fibers (at λ = 833 nm). The fibers’ outer diameter is 125 μm. Fibers were drawn from different preforms explaining the slightly different RIPs. Circles denote measured field intensity distribution while bold line denotes the field distribution computed taking into account the actual index profile.
