Abstract: A method of manufacturing a tuned optical fiber includes providing a first preform from a set of like preforms each having substantially the same refractive index profile, including amount of axial variation relative to a target refractive index profile. The method includes drawing a reference optical fiber from the first preform and measuring a variation in an optical or physical property as a function of axial position. The method also includes drawing from a second preform from the set of like preforms the tuned optical fiber. The drawing includes using a time-varying tension that reduces the amount of variation of the optical or physical property of interest. The time-varying tension is defined by an amount of axial stress imparted to the tuned fiber needed to alter the refractive index profile and the at least one optical or physical property based on a stress-optic effect.

Abstract: Methods for classifying a core cane of an multimode optical fiber are disclosed. In embodiments, the method includes determining a relative refractive index profile Δ(r) of the core cane; fitting the relative refractive index profile Δ(r) to an alpha profile Δfit(r) defined by: Δ fit ( r ) = Δ o , fit ( 1 - ( r a fit ) α fit ) where Δo,fit is a relative refractive index at a longitudinal centerline of the core cane, αfit is a core shape parameter, and afit is an outer radius of the core cane; generating a non-alpha residual profile Δdiff(r)=Δ(r)−Δfit(r) for the core cane; computing one or more metrics from Δdiff(r), and using the one or metrics in a classification of the core cane, the classification comprising a prediction of whether a bandwidth at a pre-determined wavelength of an optical fiber drawn from a preform comprising the core cane exceeds a pre-determined bandwidth at the pre-determined wavelength.
