    Abstract: Preparation of halogen-doped silica is described. The preparation includes doping silica with high halogen concentration and sintering halogen-doped silica to a closed-pore state in a gas-phase environment that has a low partial pressure of impermeable gases. Impermeable gases are difficult to remove from halogen-doped fiber preforms and lead to defects in optical fibers drawn from the preforms. A low partial pressure of impermeable gases in the sintering environment leads to a low concentration of impermeable gases and a low density of gas-phase voids in densified halogen-doped silica. Preforms with fewer defects result.

    Abstract: A soot deposition burner assembly, having at least one burner including a burner face on a first surface of a burner support. The burner produces a flame which extends generally perpendicularly to the first surface. A burner shield includes a first wall extending generally perpendicularly from the first surface surrounding the burner face. The burner shield has a base end with a first surface area facing toward the first surface and a shield face with a second surface area facing away from the first surface. To reduce the buildup of soot material, the second surface area is smaller than the first surface area, and the wall thickness is less at the shield face than the base end. Additionally, air can be directed along an exterior surface of the first wall from the base end toward the shield face to further reduce soot buildup.
