The film thickness and the composition of the fiber can be controlled by ALD (Atomic Layer Deposition) process at
atomic level. Therefore, a special fiber with the structure of alternating deposition of doped Nano-semiconductor
materials (such as PbS, InP etc.) and SiO2 can be manufactured by ALD process. In a word, this would not only change
the manufacturing technology of fiber, but also greatly changed the structure of fiber. In this paper the Band-gap energy
and absorption wavelength is calculated for different nano-particle size by the influence of Quantum Size Effect.
Considering the 1550 nm wavelength used widely in optical communication, the particle size is calculated, which is used
in a simulated structure of the special fiber. Then Based on the simulation of the distribution of optical field, we draw a
conclusion that the light field intensity in the special fiber is lower than the single fiber. Therefore, a high-power
pumping light should be added if the special fiber is used as amplifying fiber.
