Abstract

A highly nonlinear bismuth oxide (Bi/sub 2/O/sub 3/)-based glass fibre aiming at applications to all-optical signal processing is reported. This fibre features a high nonlinear coefficient /spl gamma/ of 64.2 W/sup -1/ km/sup -1/, low propagation loss of a=0.8 dB/m, low splicing loss of 0.48 dB, and high mechanical and chemical durability.
