Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing multimode silica-based optical fiber and to provide fiber manufactured by this method. SOLUTION: The method for manufacturing the multimode optical fiber of wide range silica-base contains provision of noncircular preform and drawing of fiber of chiral structure from the preform. The noncircular preform can be manufactured by maintaining the inside of a tubular preform under reduced pressure during at least a part of breaking and consequently obtaining a noncircular core and a cladding. The noncircular preform can be also manufactured by removing proper parts of the preform (by grinding or by plasma etching, for example) and obtaining a circular core and a noncircular cladding. The chiral structure is given to the fiber, for example, by twisting the fiber alternately in a clockwise direction and in an anticlockwise direction with respect to the preform during drawing of the fiber.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To generate both of deflection and double refraction of beams and to obtain a fiber which keeps polarized light and which is effective for laser application by controlling the refractive index of a circular outer cladding to be lower than the refractive index of an inner cladding. SOLUTION: The laser fiber 30 has a core 32 doped with rare earth elements surrounded by an asymmetric first inner cladding 34 and a second cladding 36. The inner cladding 34 consists of a material having a lower refractive index than that of the core 32 and consists of a non-doped silicate glass. The second cladding 36 consists of a material having a lower refractive index than that of the core 32 or the first inner cladding 34, and for example, a fluorinated silicate glass or bosilicate glass. By this structure, the stress induced region not only causes double refraction around the asymmetric region of the inner cladding 34 but generates deflection of beams to constitute the laser fiber 30 which reflects excitation light on the core 32.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fiber laser hindering laser oscillation at an undesired wavelength. SOLUTION: An multi-mode fiber 51 in the fiber laser 40 is placed between a diode laser 49 used to activate an active medium of the fiber laser 40 and the fiber laser 40 used for an optical source. The multi-mode fiber part 51 reduces dramatically the intensity of the fiber laser beam made incident onto the diode laser 49 thereby increasing the reliability of the fiber laser 40. Furthermore, the multi-mode fiber part 51 reduces considerably an undesired wavelength so that the laser oscillation of the fiber laser 40 reaches its threshold value. When the fiber laser 40 is used for a source of a pump light in an FAMP, an adverse effect of multi-path interference MPI can be reduced.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize an article having a fiber Raman device that is pumped by light from seven or more pump LEDs (for example from fourteen pump LEDs). SOLUTION: The Raman device 10 is equipped with a silica type optical fiber 12 comprising at least a first and a second wavelength selective elements 13, 141 arranged to provide one or more light cavities to Raman shift light in the optical fiber 12, a first coupler to couple pumped light having a first wavelength λ1 from a first pump light source 11 with the optical fiber 12, a means to provide an outgoing light utilizing means with Raman shifted Raman device outgoing light having a wavelength λ0 higher than λ1 and a second coupler 21 to couple pumped light having a second wavelength λ2 from a second pump light source 111 with the optical fiber 12. Then λ2 is different from λ1 and λ0>λ2 is satisfied, and at least one out of the wavelength selective elements is off resonance with respect to at least one out of λ1 and λ2.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an optical ring network which can be expanded while suppressing the whole costs relatively low by using a dual ring two-way optical fiber transmission system that mutually connects a plurality of nodes and the a hub so that a plurality of WDM channels can be established in each ring. SOLUTION: A dual ring two-way optical fiber transmission system connects a series of nodes 110 to 116 to a hub 130. A distinct wavelength channel is allocated to each of the nodes 110 to 116, and the hub 130 and the nodes performs communication along a ring 101. Adjacent nodes and the hub 130 are connected by the link of a WDM ring, a pumped link is optically connected to a pump source and a signal made to pass through the pumped link is optically amplified. Then, the pumped link undergoes a different optical gain when a signal in a different wavelength channel is made to pass through a complete path between the hub 130 including the pumped link and a corresponding node.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pump waveguide device in which a monitor is improved for measuring pump power. SOLUTION: A pump waveguide device that has a pump waveguide 14 and an active waveguide 13 is provided with a pump power monitor by placing an indicator waveguide 18, which has a core doped with a material sensitive to pump light, between a pump source 12 and the active waveguide 13. For example, a certain material emits fluorescence in response to the pump light, or absorbs the pump light to emit heat. As a result, pump power is measured accurately with fluorescence or heat from the indicator waveguide 18. Since fluorescence or heat is generated in the doped core, a measured value is sensitive to the pump power getting in the active waveguide 13, and not sensitive to fluctuation of mode dispersion.
