The invention discloses a low-loss
optical fiber and a manufacturing method of the low-loss
optical fiber, and relates to the field of optical fibers. The low-loss
optical fiber comprises a step change
waveguide; the step change
waveguide comprises a core layer, a core cladding
transition layer, a core cladding interface
transition layer, a deep
fluorine-doped cladding, a cladding sleeve
transition layer, a cladding sleeve interface transition layer and a sleeve layer, wherein the core layer, the core cladding transition layer, the core cladding interface transition layer, the deep
fluorine-doped cladding, the cladding sleeve transition layer, the cladding sleeve interface transition layer and the sleeve layer are arranged in sequence from inside to outside; the core layer is made of a pure
silicon core slightly doped with
fluorine or
boron, wherein the relative refringence between the core layer and the pure
silicon core is 0-0.1%; the deep fluorine-doped cladding is made of pure
silicon dioxide deeply doped with fluorine, wherein the relative refringence between the deep fluorine-doped cladding and the core layer is 0.24%-0.28%; the refractivity in the core cladding transition layer is distributed in a gradient change mode according to a parabola curve, wherein the range of the absolute value of stress coefficients is from 0.005 to 0.015; the base point temperature rises gradually from 900-950 DEG C to 1150-1200 DEG C. The
attenuation coefficient of the low-loss optical
fiber manufactured according to the manufacturing method can be reduced to less than 0.158 dB / km in a 1550 nm
wave band.
