A rare earth-doped core optical fiber includes a core comprising a silica glass containing at least aluminum and ytterbium, a clad provided around the core and comprising a silica glass having a lower refraction index than that of the core, and a polymer layer provided on the outer circumference of the clad and having a lower refractive index than that of the clad, wherein aluminum and ytterbium are doped into the core such that a loss increase by photodarkening, TPD, satisfies the following inequality (A). By this rare earth-doped core optical fiber, it is possible to manufacture an optical fiber laser capable of maintaining a sufficient laser oscillation output even when used for a long period of time.; TPD≧10{−0.655*(DAl)−4.304*exp{−0.00343*(AYb)}+1.274} (A)
