Aluminum-Doped Highly Non-Linear Optical Fiber

Lightera Highly-Non-Linear Optical Fiber (HNLF) combines a high non-linear coefficient with a small dispersion slope. The fiber design includes a high delta core, doped with GeO2, surrounded by a deeply depressed ring doped with fluorine.

HNLF is available in five versions: HNLF Standard with a dispersion slope of 0.019 ps/(nm²·km), HNLF Zero-slope with a dispersion slope of 0.006 ps/(nm²·km), HNLF-PM which is polarization maintaining, HNLF Al-Doped with an aluminum doped core for increased SBS threshold, and HNLF-SPINE (Stable Phase-matching for Improved Nonlinear Efficiency) with a zero dispersion wavelength that is very stable along the fiber length. All are available with wide range dispersion values.

Ordering Information for HNLF Al-Doped Module

Ordering Information for HNLF Al-Doped Module
Module	Short (1-2 meter) Standard Single-Mode (SSMF) pigtails with connectors are spliced to the HNLF. The fiber with pigtails is delivered on a 29 x 175 mm spool covered with a protective layer of silicone glue.
Ordering Code	HNLF-AL-LLLL-P-M-DD
Length Code (LLLL)	Length in step of 50 meters (0050, 0100, 0150, .. 2000)
Pigtail Option (P)	Pigtail Type 1 = SSMF with FC/APC Connectors 2 = SSMF with FC/PC Connectors
Mechanical Option (M)	Mechanical Package 1 = 29×175 mm spool with silicone glue 2 = 29×175 mm spool without silicone glue
Dispersion Code (DD)	Dispersion at 1550 nm (ps/nm·km) m1 = -1.0 ± 1.0 z0 = 0.0 ± 1.0 p1 = 1.0 ± 1.0
