摘要
针对光纤通信中的色散补偿,尤其是密集波分复用系统的多信道同时补偿的需求,提出了一种用于宽带色散斜率补偿的光子准晶体光纤.该光纤结构包层空气孔为准晶体排列,并且在纤芯引入了中心缺陷.通过对光纤特性的数值分析表明,在1 460~1 625nm的光通信波段,该结构光纤的相对色散斜率为0.004 4~0.002 9nm-1,相对色散斜率与标准单模光纤近似相等,且负色散值达-2 476ps·nm-1·km-1.对标准单模光纤进行色散补偿后,在S+C+L波段色散值为(-0.5~0)ps·nm-1·km-1.该光纤可用于对当前光纤通信系统进行宽带色散补偿,实现多信道同时补偿,简化结构,并降低补偿成本.
For multi-channel dispersion compensation in dense wavelength division multiplexing(DWDM)systems optical communication networks,a broadband dispersion slope compensating photonic quasi-crystal fiber(PQF)is proposed.The PQF has a six-fold symmetric quasi-periodic array of air holes in cladding and a high index rob in the concentric core.The simulating results of the dispersion slope and dispersion of PQF reveal that the relative dispersion slope(RDS)can reach a low value 0.004 4nm-1 to 0.002 9nm-1 that is equal to the standard single mode fiber(SMF)over S+C+L band approximately;the PQF can achieve dispersion slope compensation effectively,while obtain a larger negative dispersion coefficient of-2 476ps·nm-1·km-1 over optical communication band 1 460nm to 1 625nm.The value of dispersion compensation result is(-0.5~0)ps·nm-1·km-1 to the SMF in the S+C+L band.The designed PQF can achieve multi-channel dispersion compensation,simplify the structure and reduce compensation costs,and then it can be used for wide-band dispersion slope compensation.
