Abstract:
Methods of fabricating an optical fiber preform and a method of fabricating an optical fiber of the invention realize the fabrication of an optical fiber having desirable transmission characteristics in the entire wavelength rage of about 1.3 to 1.6 &mgr;m. The fabrication method comprises a porous core rod producing step of depositing a first cladding (3) having an outer diameter D so as to surround a core (2) having an outer diameter d to produce a porous core rod (1) of D/d≧4.0 by VAD. Then, the porous core rod (1) is dehydrated to reduce the OH group concentration to 0.8 ppb or less by weight ratio. The porous core rod (1) is formed to be transparent for a vitrified core rod (4) and is heated and stretched. Thereafter, a second cladding is obtained by depositing a second porous cladding (5) around the vitrified core rod (4) by VAD to be dehydrated, transparent and vitrified. The optical fiber preform thus fabricated is drawn to form into an optical fiber and is then allowed to stand in a deuterium gas atmosphere for a predetermined period.

A method comprises a calibration curve creation step in which a calibration curve is created on the basis of hardened surface layer depth. A destructive test is performed on one of two samples in pairs, and propagation time of a first peak of a first wave of waveform of a signal outputted with the other in pairs in a non-destructive test is determined, the samples in pairs being prepared such that carburization depth varies gradually from pair to pair. A waveform of a signal outputted with a to-be-inspected piece is obtained. The propagation time of a first peak of a first wave of the waveform of the signal output with the to-be-inspected piece is obtained, and the hardened surface layer depth of the to-be-inspected piece is obtained using the calibration curve, on the basis of the propagation time obtained with the to-be-inspected sample.
