A single-mode, polarization-maintaining optical fiber has both excellent signal attenuation and resistance to adverse bending effects because (1) its cladding and any portion of the jacket that is within five times the radius of the mode-field in its core have a substantially uniform index of refraction that is at least 0.005 less than that of pure silica, and (2) the index of refraction of the core is at least as great as, but preferably not substantially greater than, that of pure silica. Preferably, the stress-applying region of the fiber is elliptical, and the jacket is pure silica.
Une fibre optique monomode maintenant la polarisation a une excellente atténuation de signal et une excellente résistance aux effets de courbure adverses parce que (1) sa gaine et toute partie de son enveloppe se trouvant à moins de cinq fois le rayon du champ de mode dans son coeur a un indice de réfraction substantiellement uniforme qui est au moins 0,005 inférieur à celui de la silice pure, et (2) l'indice de réfraction du coeur est au moins aussi grand, mais de préférence non substantiellement plus grand que celui de la silice pure. De préférence, la régioin d'application des contraintes de la fibre est elliptique, et l'enveloppe est en silice pure.
