Standard Single-Mode Fiber with High Modal Bandwidth as Two-Mode Fiber around 1060 nm for High Data Rate Transmission

A step-index standard single-mode fiber as a two-mode fiber at 1060 nm can have a high modal bandwidth. In the current work, we conducted a detailed study and found that the LP11 mode of such a fiber is bending-sensitive and that the light excited to LP11 mode can be stripped out due to bending. The...

description A step-index standard single-mode fiber as a two-mode fiber at 1060 nm can have a high modal bandwidth. In the current work, we conducted a detailed study and found that the LP11 mode of such a fiber is bending-sensitive and that the light excited to LP11 mode can be stripped out due to bending. The transmission experiments were conducted using offset launch with both LP01 and LP11 modes excited and center launch with only LP01 mode excited to show transmission performance in different conditions. We demonstrated the feasibility of 25 Gb/s NRZ transmission over 1 km of the fiber when both LP01 and LP11 modes were excited. We further explored the feasibility of a trench-assisted bending-insensitive step-index standard single-mode fiber with good bending properties for both LP01 and LP11 modes for two-mode transmission at 1060 nm. We found a fiber that has high modal bandwidth at 1060 nm and can sustain bending down to at least a 20 mm diameter. The high-bandwidth two-mode fiber can be potentially useful for future 1060 nm-based VCSEL transmission.
