Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of an optical fiber prefabricated rod. The preparation method comprises the following steps: soaking a nano-porous quartz glass rod into mixed solution containing doping ions; drying the soaked nano-porous quartz glass rod under a natural condition; increasing the temperature of the dried nano-porous quartz glass rod under the vacuum, carbon monoxide, chlorine, helium, argon or nitrogen environment, then sintering the nano-porous glass rod to be a compact and transparent quartz glass core rod under the temperature being 1050 DEG C-1200 DEG C after temperature raising process; sleeving a quartz glass tube outside an arranged capillary tube structure; drawing one or a plurality of capillary tubes at the geometric center of the capillary tube structure; using the quartz glass core rod to replace the capillary tubes to form the optical fiber prefabricated rod. According to the preparation method method, the nanoscale uniform dispersion of rear earth ions can be realized, so that the problem of the clustering easily caused by doping active ions in existing photonic crystal optical fiber core with high density can be solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing an optical fiber component, more specifically, the invention relates to a method for preparing an optical fiber preform rod. Background technique [0002] In the existing active optical fiber field, the main preform preparation methods include metal chemical vapor deposition (metal chemical vapor deposition, MCVD for short) and multi-component glass melting method. However, these two preparation methods have the following problems: ① In terms of structure, large mode field structure fibers cannot be obtained effectively; ② In terms of doping, it is impossible to obtain high-concentration doped fibers due to the characteristics of rare earth ions themselves that cause clusters in quartz glass. Miscellaneous optical fiber; ③ Although the doping concentration of multi-component glass has been increased, its inherent shortcomings, such as large background loss, poor chemical stability, and weak mechanical str...
