Abstract: We consider optical fibres with a modified radial profile of the acoustic refractive index. The use of two-component doping of the core in a silica optical fibre makes it possible to simultaneously create different refractive index profiles for electrostriction-induced optical and hypersonic acoustic waves, which can be used to effectively reduce the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) gain. The use of phosphorus oxide (P2O5) and fluorine (F) allows one, while maintaining the optical single-mode regime, to realise a high-contrast acoustic refractive index profile (ARIP), in which, under the condition of optimising its shape, a large number of guided acoustic modes can be effectively involved in SBS. It creates a wide multiband SBS gain spectrum and leads to a decrease in the absolute value of its maximum proportional to the number of these acoustic modes. In this paper, for such fibres with a step-index optical refractive index profile, we theoretically investigate a dependence of the absolute SBS gain maximum on the core/cladding optical refractive index contrast Δn at the ARIP parameters providing a maximum possible decrease due to multimode acoustics. Real technological limitations on the maximum doping of silica glass simultaneously with P2O5 and F (in particular, for the modified chemical method of vapour deposition, MCVD) are taken into account. An approximate analytical model of the optimal ARIP (and, accordingly, the radial distributions of P2O5 and F concentrations) is also presented. The obtained results lead to a conclusion that the deepest SBS gain suppression (up to 15 dB) in P2O5–F–SiO2 optical fibres can be achieved at Δn < 0.0045, while at 0.0045 < Δn < 0.0075 these limits are objectively limited to 6 dB, and at Δn > 0.0075 other glass compositions or methods must be used.
Keywords: single-mode optical fibre, stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS), acoustic refractive index profile, phosphorus–fluorine–silicate fibre, SBS gain.
