Patent ID: 10962708

Abstract:
The invention concerns a bending-loss single mode optical fibre having a Mode Field Diameter at 1310 nm greater than or equal to 9 microns and having a core and a cladding, the core refractive index profile having a trapezoid-like shape. According to an aspect of the invention, the cladding comprises a shallow trench with a refractive index difference Ant between −2×10−3; and −0.9×10−3, and: the trapezoid ratio r0/r1 of the core is between 0.1 and 0.6, preferably, between 0.2 and 0.5, more preferably between 0.25 and 0.45; the core surface integral Formula (I) is between 20.10 3 μm and 24.10−3 μm and the cladding surface integral Formula (II) is between −25×10−3 μm and −9×10−3 μm, where Δn(r) is the refractive-index difference with respect to said outer cladding as a function of the radius r, and said single mode optical fibre fulfils the following criterion: 25.7×10−3≤V01−0.2326V02≤26.8×10−3.
