[Technical Field] The present invention relates to an infrared optical fiber that has light transmission characteristics with low loss even in a wavelength range of 2 μm or more. [Prior Art] Conventionally, silica glass has generally been used for optical fibers, but this type of glass has infrared absorption caused by vibration of Si-O bonds, and due to this and Rayleigh scattering, transmission loss is The small wavelength range is from wavelength 0.6
It is limited to the visible range from 1.7 μm to the near infrared, and the loss of optical fiber increases rapidly in longer wavelength ranges, so quartz optical fibers could not be used in the wavelength range of 2 μm or more. On the other hand, fluoride glass has infrared absorption at longer wavelengths than silica glass, so it can transmit light at longer wavelengths than silica glass, and can be used for optical fibers that transmit light with wavelengths of 2 μm or more. It has been known. Currently, fluoride optical fibers are
ZrF 4 −BaF 2 −GdF 3 −AlF 3 glass with a different composition ratio to form a core-clad waveguide structure, and ZrF 4 −BaF 2 −LaF 3 −AlF 3 as the core.
−LiF−PbF 2- based glass is used as a cladding.
ZrF 4 -BaF 2 -LaF 3 -ALF 3 -Two types of optical fibers using ZrF 4 -BaF 2 -LaF 3 -ALF 3 -LiF glass can
A minimum loss of approximately 6 dB/Km has been achieved between ~2.5 μm, but the length at which these minimum loss characteristics are achieved is approximately 20 m, and there is a problem that the loss value increases beyond that length. Ta. The increase in loss value is due to scattering due to microcrystals in the fiber, and this is due to the thermal stability of the fluoride glass used. That is, in order to realize a long, low-loss fluoride optical fiber, it is necessary to manufacture the fiber using a more stable glass, but such a glass has not been known until now. [Objective] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a long, high-quality infrared optical fiber having low loss characteristics by using fluoride glass with high thermal stability. [Structure of the Invention] In order to achieve the above object, the infrared light fiber of the present invention is made of glass that does not contain lead fluoride and contains at least one of the fluorides of gatlinium, lutetium, yttrium, and scandium. To summarize the present invention, the optical fiber of the present invention contains 43 to 52 mol% of ZrF4 , 20 to 28 mol% of BaF2 ,
1.5 to 7 mol % of LaF 3 , 1.5 to 7 mol % of at least one fluoride selected from the group consisting of GdF 3 , LuF 3 , YF 3 and ScF 3 , 1.5 to 7 mol % of AlF 3 and LiF is 15 to 22 mol%, and the total
It is characterized by being made of 100 mol% fluoride glass. If the mixing ratio of each of the above components, that is, the composition, is out of these ranges, the thermal stability of the glass deteriorates, making it impossible to obtain a long optical fiber with low loss. [Example] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows the thermal stability of the glass used in the infrared optical fiber of the present invention in comparison with two conventional glasses that are said to have high thermal stability. A 6 dB/Km fiber has been obtained using this conventional glass. That is, A in the figure is a typical glass composition of the present invention 49ZrF 4 −22BaF 2
3LaF 3 -3YF 3 -3AlF 3 -20LiF (mol%), B and C are the conventional 52ZrF 4 -
20BaF 2 −5LaF 3 −3AlF 3 −20LiF (mol%),
52ZrF 4 −15BaF 2 −5PbF 2 −5LaF 3 −3AlF 3
This is a characteristic of 20LiF. These characteristics were obtained from analysis of the crystallization process of each glass. In other words, when the glass is held at a constant temperature T (K) for a constant time t (min), the ratio of the crystallized portion to the whole, that is, the crystallization fraction Xc is:
When T is near the glass deformation temperature (Tg), the glass of A has 1 ) In B, Xc=0.87 (1-exp(-(kt) 1.7 )), k=4.5×10 38 exp(-51300/T)(min -1 ) In C, Xc=0.85(1-exp(-( kt) 1.3 )), k=1.3×10 42 exp(-56400/T)(min -1 ). When expressing the glass state using Xc, it is usually Xc
10 -6 , so the relationship between T and t when Xc = 10 -6 is determined using the above three equations, and the relationship is shown in Figure 1. The characteristics in FIG. 1 indicate the maximum time tg for which the glass state is maintained at temperature T. When operating a fiber by drawing a glass base material, the glass base material is heated to near its glass deformation temperature Td.
The stability of the glass becomes clear by comparing the magnitude of tg at and its temperature dependence. The circles in Figure 1 indicate the Td of each glass, and the temperature change of tg at Td is A, B, C
Although there is no big difference between them, it can be seen that the magnitude of tg at Td is much larger for A than for B and C. Namely. It can be seen that the glass A used in the present invention is much less likely to crystallize during drawing than the conventional glasses B and C. Therefore, compared to optical fibers manufactured using conventional fibers, the optical fiber of the present invention has lower loss characteristics, and can realize these low loss characteristics over long distances. In the present invention, it is possible to easily provide a low-loss optical fiber having a waveguide structure in which the core has a higher curvature index than the cladding. That is, in the present invention, a waveguide structure can be imparted to an optical fiber by appropriately changing the composition ratio within the above composition range, but since the glass used in the present invention has high thermal stability, The problem of crystallization during the process of imparting the structure can also be significantly improved, and therefore a low-loss optical fiber can be easily obtained. Next, the present invention will be explained using specific examples.
The present invention is not limited to these in any way. Example 1 25 g of NH 4 .F. HF was added to 50 g of mixed powder of ZrF 4 , BaF 2 , LaF 3 , YF 3 , AlF 3 , and LiF, placed in a metal crucible, and heated at 400°C under an N 2 gas atmosphere.
The mixed powder was held for 1 hour to completely fluorinate, and then heated to 850°C and melted to obtain molten raw materials for cores and cladding having the compositions shown in Tables 1 and 2.

[Table] Here, the 〇 mark indicates that the base material is transparent,
The mark △ indicates that the base material is partially devitrified. Next, the molten raw material for the cladding is poured into a preheated brass mold, and after cooling, the low-viscosity center part is poured out to form the cladding layer, and the molten raw material for the core is immediately poured into the cavity to form the core. An optical fiber base material with a diameter of 8 mmφ and a length of 100 mm was prepared.
At this time, the raw material composition for the core was selected to have a higher curvature than the raw material composition for the cladding. The obtained base material is made of homogeneous glass as a whole when the core and cladding compositions thereof are in the composition range corresponding to the circle in Tables 1 and 2. If it deviated from the cladding, microcrystals were generated at the core-clad interface. The range of such suitable composition is as follows. ZrF 4 : 43-52 (mol%) BaF 2 : 20-28 (mol%) LaF 3 : 1.5-7 (mol%) YF 3 : 1.5-7 (mol%) AlF 3 : 1.5-7 (mol%) LiF: 15-22 (mol %) Next, this base material was inserted into a Teflon FEP tube, and an optical fiber was produced by zone heating and drawing. With the base material within the above composition range, no microcrystals were observed during drawing, and a homogeneous, low-loss fiber was obtained. The minimum loss is
The fiber length was 30 to 40 dB/Km and 200 m. It should be noted that with a base material having a composition outside the above range, generation and growth of microcrystals were observed during drawing, and a fiber with low loss could not be produced. FIG. 2 shows the optical loss characteristics of an optical fiber made of glass within the above composition range. The core composition is
46.5ZrF 4 −27.5BaF 2 −3.5LaF 3 −2YF 3 −2.5AlF 3
−18LiF (mol%), cladding composition is 45.5ZrF 4
26BaF 2 −2.5LaF 3 −2.5YF 3 −3.5AlF 3 −20LiF (mol%) (Example #21 in Table 2), the outer diameter of the fiber is 250 μm, the core diameter is 100 μm, and the refractive index difference is
It was 0.15% and 200m long. The lowest loss of this fiber is at a wavelength of 2.16 μm.
Although the voltage was 30dB/Km, we were able to achieve this characteristic over a length of 200m. In addition, in Figure 1, the absorption peak near the wavelength of 1.5 μm is due to Fe impurities, and the wavelength
Absorption peak and wavelength at 2.25μm and wavelength 2.44μm
The sudden increase in loss above 2.6 μm is due to OH impurities. Therefore, it can be seen that by removing absorption of these impurities, it is possible to further reduce the loss. In this example, ZrF 4 , BaF 2 , LaF 3 ,
The composition is limited to six components: YF 3 , AlF 3 and LiF, and it has been confirmed that a long optical fiber with low loss can actually be produced within this composition range. Example 2 In the same composition range as in Example 1,
1.5-7 (mol%) GdF 3 , LuF 3 instead of YF 3
Alternatively, optical fibers having cores and claddings having compositions shown in Tables 3 to 5 were produced using ScF 3 , and long optical fibers with low loss were obtained.
Its minimum loss is 30-40dB/Km, fiber length is 200
It was m.
