以单模光纤为基础的传统光通信系统的容量已趋近其理论极限, 多芯少模光纤是突破现有传输容量瓶颈的一种有效方式. 本文设计了一种低串扰5-LP模的弱耦合异质芯7芯光纤, 采用沟槽辅助和气孔隔离相结合的方法, 在标准125 μm外径的情况下实现了芯间和模间的低串扰. 利用有限元法计算了纤芯之间的串扰、有效模面积等. 经过设计优化, 光纤在光通信C+L波段可以稳定传输5个LP模式, 其中LP21与LP02模之间的有效折射率差最小, 且大于1.1 × 10–3; 光纤中LP31模式的芯间串扰最大且低于–50 dB/km, 因此该光纤可以同时实现模间和芯间的低串扰传输. 7个纤芯中5个LP模的有效模面积均大于86 μm2, 在波长1550 nm处相对纤芯复用因子为57.63, 该光纤可用于大容量高速光纤传输系统.The capacity of a traditional optical communication system based on single-mode fiber has approached to its theoretical limit. Multi-core few-mode fibers provide an effective way to break through the bottleneck of existing transmission capacity. In this paper, a 5-LP-mode weakly-coupled low-crosstalk 7-core fiber is designed by using a combination of trench assistance and air hole isolation structure. The fiber with a standard outer diameter achieves low crosstalk between cores and modes. The inter-core crosstalk area and the effective mode area of the core are calculated by the finite element method. After design optimization, there are 5 stable transmission LP modes in the C+L band of optical communication in this fiber. The effective refractive index difference between LP21 mode and LP02 mode is the smallest and is greater than 1.1 × 10–3. The LP31 mode in the optical fiber has the largest inter-core crosstalk and the loss is lower than –50 dB/km. The fiber can achieve low crosstalk transmission between modes and cores at the same time. The mode areas of the 5 LP modes in the 7 cores are larger than 86 μm2, and the relative core multiplexing factor is 57.63 at a wavelength of 1550 nm. Therefore, this fiber can be used in a large-capacity high-speed fiber transmission system.
