| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a hybrid optical fiber that includes a multi-segmented optical core exhibiting a refractive graded-index profile typically used to support multimode transmission in which a step-index is added at the center of the optical core, the profile parameters (a s ) and (” s ) of this step-index being tuned so as to provide an optical fiber that transmits both error free multimode optical signals and error free single-mode optical signals. The implementation of such a refractive index profile n(r) of the optical core, as well as the choice of an adequate value of the parameters (a s ) and (” s ) lead to adapt the fundamental mode of the optical fiber such that the optical power coupled into the fundamental mode is maximized at the wavelength of the single-mode transmission, 1550 nm for example, while preserving a relatively reduced modal dispersion at the wavelength of the multimode transmission, 850 nm for example. |
