     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     1. Field of the Invention 
     The present invention relates to the technical field of fibre laser transmission and amplification, and specifically a high-efficiency parallel-beam laser optical fibre drawing method and an optical fibre. 
     2. Description of the Related Art 
     A fibre laser is essentially designed to convert low quality pump laser into higher quality laser output. As the application fields are constantly extending, the output power of the fibre laser needs to be risen unceasingly. Currently, a high power fibre laser and a fibre amplifier mainly use double-cladding doped optical fibres. Compared with the divergence angle of multimode pump beam emitted by a semiconductor pump laser, the double-cladding doped optical fibres have a rather small diameter of cladding. Therefore, how to efficiently couple pump light to the inner cladding of the double-cladding optical fibres is a core technology to obtain high power optical fibre laser output. 
     At present, pump coupling technology can be roughly divided into end pump coupling technology and side pump coupling technology. Regarding end pump coupling technology, a pump light is coupled to the inner cladding of a double-cladding optical fibre from one or two end faces of the double-cladding optical fibre. As for side pump coupling technology, a pump light is coupled to the inner cladding of a double-cladding optical fibre from the side of the double-cladding optical fibre. As the two ends of the optical fibre are not occupied, the pump light is distributed more uniformly in the optical fibre, thereby facilitating signal light input and output, fibre splicing and signal measurement etc. Typical side pump coupling technology includes V-groove method, embedded reflector method, angular polishing method, diffraction grating pump coupling and GTWave technology etc. In GTWave technology, by using the unique structure of a parallel-beam laser optical fibre drawn from combined active and passive optical fibre performs, a pump light is coupled to a gain optical fibre cable along an axial module of the optical fibre; when the outer diameter or numerical aperture of the optical fibre is comparatively low, a multimode pump light in the passive optical fibre can be efficiently coupled to the active optical fibre; and when the optical fibre is not damaged or deformed, multipoint segmented pumping along the length of the optical fibre can be achieved through pump light injection by discontinuously peeling the passive optical fibre, thereby preventing a problem that heat load is excessively high as a result of centralized incident power, and obtaining stable high power laser output from the gain optical fibre. As shown in  FIG. 1 , a structure diagram of a parallel-beam optical fibre, a gain optical fibre a 1  containing a quartz component and at least one pump optical fibre a 2  are arranged in parallel and are physically fused at a contact part; a low refractive index coating a 3  covers the outer layer of the gain optical fibre a 1  and the pump optical fibre a 2 ; and a protective coating a 4  covers the outermost layer. A fibre core all of the gain optical fibre a 1  is doped with a rare earth element; when a pump light penetrates through the fibre core all, laser level “population inversion” will be triggered through the rare earth element, and a cladding of the gain optical fibre will form a resonant cavity to generate laser oscillation output. When injected from one end of the pump optical fibre a 2  peeled from the parallel-beam laser optical fibre, the pump light will be coupled to the gain optical fibre a 1  from the joint of the pump optical fibre a 2  and the gain optical fibre a 1 , thereby greatly improving pump coupling efficiency, and preventing a problem of local heat management resulted from point contact in conventional side pumping. 
     A current making process of optical fibres similar to the parallel-beam optical fibre structure mainly uses a low speed parallel-beam drawing method, through which a gain optical fibre perform and at least one pump optical fibre perform are fixed on a optical fibre drawing tower in a certain arrangement pattern, and are concurrently stretched under certain speeds and tensions till two adjacent optical fibres are in contact, so that light can penetrate through adjacent optical fibres. Although the current single optical fibre drawing process is mature, concurrent drawing of multiple optical fibres needs to overcome some difficulties. For example, when multiple optical fibre performs are combined and drawn, as the drawing tension and temperature of each perform as well as the coating pressure against corresponding optical fibres are varied, effective control and adjustment are hard to be achieved. Besides, in the current perform combination drawing method, as multiple columnar performs are combined before drawing, and optical fibre performs are melted under low speed and high tension to ensure that optical fibres can be effectively fused, the quartz parts of the optical fibres drawn are melted and tightly combined and cannot be peeled as required, thus multipoint pump light injection along the length direction cannot be achieved. When the parallel-beam laser optical fibre is put into actual use, multiple points need to be selected along the length direction of the optical fibre to peel the pump optical fibre so as to achieve multipoint pumping along the length direction of the gain optical fibre as well as tight contact (or fusion) of the pump optical fibre and the gain optical fibre; and the key to achieve the application performance of the parallel-beam laser optical fibre is to achieve the peelability of the pump optical fibre. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention aims to provide a high-efficiency parallel-beam laser optical fibre drawing method and an optical fibre to overcome drawbacks of the prior art; the preparation process obviously lowers the combination difficulty of performs and improves the repeatability of process; the obtained parallel-beam laser optical fibre has a stable structure and can achieve the peelability of a pump optical fibre in a set area, thereby facilitating multipoint pump light injection along the length direction of the parallel-beam laser optical fibre. 
     To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides a high-efficiency parallel-beam laser fibre drawing method, including the steps of: S 1 . respectively arranging a base plane at the side surfaces of both a gain optical fibre perform and a pump optical fibre perform; processing the base plane of the gain optical fibre perform inwards to make multiple ribs protrude, planes at both sides of each rib being machined surfaces; and arranging multiple grooves inwards on the base plane of the pump optical fibre perform, the ribs fitting the grooves; S 2 . inserting the ribs of the gain optical fibre perform into the grooves of the pump optical fibre perform; and after the two are combined, tapering and fixing one end of the whole to form a parallel-beam laser-optical fibre perform; and S 3 . by drawing, making the parallel-beam laser-optical fibre perform into a parallel-beam laser-optical fibre. 
     Based on above-mentioned technical scheme, the ribs are rectangular prisms; and the centre of the cross section of the ribs and the axis of the gain optical fibre perform are located on a same plane. 
     Based on above-mentioned technical scheme, the grooves are rectangular grooves; and the centre of the cross section of the grooves and the axis of the pump optical fibre perform are located on a same plane. 
     Based on above-mentioned technical scheme, the gain optical fibre perform and the pump optical fibre perform constitute a tight fit; and a dimensional deviation between the fit bodies is lower than 0.25 mm. 
     Based on above-mentioned technical scheme, a fibre core of the gain optical fibre perform is located outside the ribs; and the distance from the fibre core to the base plane is greater than the distance from the machined surfaces to the base plane. 
     Based on above-mentioned technical scheme, the central axis of the fibre core and the central axis of the pump optical fibre are located on a same plane; and the centre of the cross section of the ribs, the centre of the cross section of the grooves and the centre of the cross section of the fibre core are all located on a same straight line. 
     Based on above-mentioned technical scheme, the gain optical fibre perform is 30 to 720 mm in length; the ribs are 10 to 300 mm in length along the axial direction of the optical fibre; and the distance between the centres of two adjacent ribs is 12 to 420 mm. 
     Based on above-mentioned technical scheme, the height of the ribs above the machined surfaces is the same as the depth of the grooves, that is, 0.5 to 35.0 mm; the ribs have a same width as the grooves, that is, 1.0 to 70.0 mm; the machined surfaces at the two sides of each rib have a same width; the base planes at the two sides of each groove have a same width; and the width of the machined surfaces and the base planes is 1.0 to 35.0 mm.

     The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 
     1. processing of ribs on a base plane of a gain optical fibre perform and processing of grooves on a base plane of the pump optical fibre perform can be carried out by a numerically-controlled machine tool, instead of any high precision mechanical finishing device; the outer surface of the formed rib structure and the inner surface of the grooves have low smoothing difficulty; and thanks to high smoothness, high processing efficiency, low cost and short time, the present invention is suitable for large-scale production; 
     2. a machined surface of the gain optical fibre and the base plane of the pump optical fibre are fit in the length direction, and form separate close contact parts; as a peelable structure is provided, the pump optical fibre and the gain optical fibre can be separated when an outer coating is peeled off, thereby meeting the application requirement of multipoint injection; 
     3. the ribs of the gain optical fibre perform are fit with the grooves of the pump optical fibre, so that the performs can be combined simply and more firmly than those arranged in parallel in a common combination manner, thereby ensuring that locations of the performs are relatively fixed during drawing; 
     4. in the drawing process, the fit part of the combined performs can be fully fused due to the tension of glass molten state, thereby preventing a likely technical risk of conventional methods that a pump light cannot be coupled to the gain optical fibre as a coating is squeezed into the contact surface of the pump optical fibre and the gain optical fibre; and 
     5. the parallel-beam laser optical fibre of the present invention has good optical performance and reliability and fine pump light coupling performance, and can achieve optical fibre axial multipoint pumping and efficient pump light coupling, with a 5 m optical fibre coupling efficiency above 80%.

     the processed gain optical fibre perform  1  with a rare earth doping diameter of 3.6 mm in the core layer and a cladding of 36 mm is combined with the grooved pump optical fibre perform  2  with a cladding of 36 mm, that is, the ribs  11  of the gain optical fibre perform  1  are inserted into the grooves  21  of the pump optical fibre perform  2 ; the error of fit is 0.15 mm; the centre lines of the ribs  11  and the grooves  21  and the axes of the gain optical fibre perform  1  and the pump optical fibre perform  2  are located in a same plane; one end of the combined whole perform is melted and drawn into a parallel-beam laser optical fibre perform as shown in  FIG. 5 ; 
     finally, the parallel-beam laser optical fibre perform is placed on a drawing tower to draw at approximately 2000□; the drawing tension and speed are controlled, so that the two optical fibres form two structure patterns, namely tight melting and peelable contact according to processing design, and are made into a parallel-beam laser optical fibre with a gain optical fibre diameter of 201 um, a pump optical fibre diameter of 200 um and a coating diameter of 564 um; and major test indexes of the optical fibre are provided in Table 2.
