Abstract

See full text

A few-mode optical fiber including a core's refractive-index profile Δn(r) of trapezoid-like shape. The optical core having a center part of radius R1 and a transition part ranges from the radius R1 to a radius R2, such that R2>R1 with R2 between 6.8 and 11.5 μm, said refractive-index profile being defined by a surface integral of the core index profile of between 180×10−3 and 270×10−3 μm; a transition slope S of between 1.7×10−3 and 12×10−3 μm−1; with Δn1 and Δn2 the refractive-index difference respectively of the center part of the optical core and of the cladding part adjacent to the optical core, with respect to the outer optical cladding.
