Abstract

A low-loss few-mode fiber relates to the technical field of optical communications and related sensing devices, and includes, from inside to outside, a core layer (1), a fluorine-doped quartz inner cladding (2), a fluorine-doped quartz second core layer (3), a fluorine-doped quartz depressed cladding (4) and a fluorine-doped quartz outer cladding (5); germanium element is not doped within the core layer (1), the refractive index of the core layer (1) is in gradient distribution, and the distribution is a power-exponent distribution; the maximum value of difference in relative refractive index between the core layer (1) and the fluorine-doped quartz inner cladding (2) is 0.3% to 0.9%; the relative refractive index difference of the fluorine-doped quartz inner cladding (2) with respect to synthetic quartz is −0.3% to −0.5%; the difference in relative refractive index between the fluorine-doped quartz second core layer (3) and the fluorine-doped quartz inner cladding (2) is 0.05% to 0.2%; the difference in relative refractive index between the fluorine-doped quartz depressed cladding (4) and the fluorine-doped quartz inner cladding (2) is −0.1% to −0.5%; the relative refractive index difference of the fluorine-doped quartz outer cladding (5) with respect to synthetic quartz is −0.3% to −0.5%. The transmission loss of optical signals of the linear polarization modes that are supported by the few-mode fiber and the relay cost are reduced.
