OPTICAL FIBER, OPTICAL FIBER TAPE AND OPTICAL INTERCONNECTION SYSTEM

摘要

An optical fiber, made of silica-based glass, comprising a core and a cladding. The optical fiber having a mode field diameter of 6.5 µm or larger at a wavelength of 1,300 nm, transmitting light with a wavelength of 1250 nm in a single mode, and having a bending loss of 1 dB/turn or less at a wavelength of 1,300 nm when the optical fiber is bent at a radius of curvature of 1.5 mm. With this configuration, reduction of both of the bending loss and the connection loss is realized and, therefore, an optical fiber and an optical fiber ribbon that can execute high-speed optical transmission are obtained. Thereby, an optical interconnection system is easily constructed.
