A low-loss prefabricated fiber connection ferrule design for guided positioning

  • 摘要: 为保证精密控制环境下使用预制光纤连接器的可靠通信,同时满足多模及单模光纤在传输性能上的要求,设计了一种导向定位的低损耗预制光纤连接插芯。通过分析光纤插芯插入损耗、倾斜损耗和间隙损耗,采用对插芯倾角、误差补偿等结构设计和端面涂层材料匹配两种设计方式,缩减插芯连接损耗;使用PIN导针和导向孔对齐MT套管等方式,实现插芯配对的精准定位。基于850 nm、1 300 nm的多模和1 310 nm、1550 nm单模光纤连接损耗,并使用BINNA-MTS 3D干涉仪进行测试。结果表明,预制插芯对接时损耗平均值在0.3 dB及0.24 dB左右,机械性能及环境测试最大损耗增加值为0.19 dB,最大值远小于0.8 dB,光纤连接插芯端面和对齐性能满足要求。

     

    Abstract: In order to ensure the reliable communication using prefabricated optical fiber connectors in the precision control environment, and to meet the requirements of multi-mode and single-mode optical fibers in terms of transmission performance, a low-loss prefabricated optical fiber connection ferrule with guided positioning was designed. By analyzing the insertion loss, tilt loss and gap loss of the optical fiber ferrule, two design methods were adopted: the structural design of the ferrule inclination angle and error compensation and the matching of the end coating material were adopted to reduce the ferrule connection loss. Precise positioning of ferrule pairing is achieved by aligning the MT sleeve with the PIN guide pin and guide hole. Based on the connection loss of 850 nm and 1 300 nm multimode and 1 310 nm and 1 550 nm single-mode optical fibers and the use of BINNA-MTS 3D interferometer, the results show that the average loss of prefabricated ferrule docking is about 0.3 dB and 0.24 dB, the maximum loss added value of mechanical properties and environmental test is 0.19 dB, and the maximum value is much less than 0.8 dB, and the end face and alignment performance of the fiber connection ferrule meet the requirements.
