Abstract

Accurate measurement of the optical loss of SCF is helpful to selecting high quality SCF and determining optimal growth conditions. By means of the SCF optic characteristic measurement set which made by ourselves, we have measured absorption spectra, fluorescence spectra and positional scatter spectra of Al₂O₃, Nd:YAG and other kinds of fibers, and some important factors which cause scattering loss have been researched. These factors include undulation of diameter, microdefects and surface wrappers of the fiber. In addition, the control of the growth conditions and improvement of the fiber qualities are mentioned.
