Abstract
A mathematical model of optical breakdown initiation in optical fiber is presented. To increase the controllability of the plasma hearth formation process and the structure of defects formed by it, various variants of initiator materials are studied. As a result of calculations, dependences of various characteristics of the plasma formation front in the fiber on the thermophysical properties of the initiator materials are obtained. Recommendations for conducting experimental studies are given. It is assumed that the results can be applied to predict the minimum power of optical radiation injected into the fiber, which is necessary for optical breakdown occurrence a fiber when using various initiator materials.
