Abstract: A radiation tuned optical fiber comprises an optical fiber that includes a substantially circular core and a cladding containing an asymmetric stress zone. The substantially circular core has an initial birefringence. A length of the optical fiber has at least one radiation-tuned portion wherein the substantially circular core has a tuned birefringence to provide the radiation tuned optical fiber in which the tuned birefringence differs from the initial birefringence.

Abstract: An optical article including a core; at least one cladding layer; and a narrow fluorine reservoir between the core and the cladding layer. The fluorine reservoir has a higher concentration of fluorine than either the cladding layer or the core. One particular embodiment includes a core including a halide-doped silicate glass that comprises approximately the following in cation-plus-halide mole percent 0.25-5 mol% Al2O3, 0.05-1.5 mol% La2O3, 0.0005-0.75 mol% Er2O3, 0.5-6 mol% F, 0-1 mol% Cl.

Abstract: A fusion splice including a first optical fiber having a first MFD and a first MFD expansion rate. The splice further includes a second fiber (100) having a second MFD and a second MFD expansion rate, wherein the second MFD is lower than the first MFD. The second fiber comprises a core (110), a cladding (130) radially surrounding the core, and a zone (120) of high-concentration of fluorine between the core and the cladding. The rate of MFD expansion of the first fiber is less than the rate of MFD expansion of the second fiber during the fusion splicing operation.
