摘要:
An optical fiber comprising core glass having therearound a cladding comprising fluorine-containing quartz glass and a process for producing the same are disclosed. Said cladding is composed of an inner portion having a prescribed thickness and a constant fluorine content through its thickness and an outer portion having its fluorine content being gradually decreased in a radial direction so that its outermost surface has a fluorine content of about 0.7% by weight or less relative to SiO.sub.2.

A high frequency induction coupled plasma torch is disclosed. The torch is comprised of a multi-pipe structure and is used for forming a plasma flame by high frequency power induction. The torch is comprised of a plurality of pipes which are coaxially arranged within each other. Each of the pipes has one or more flanged openings positioned on its surface whereby it is interconnected to the adjacent pipe. By means of the flanged openings any given pipe may be interconnected with any number of outer pipes. The torch can be economically produced and maintained.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing glass rod for optical waveguides is proposed. In this method, several gaseous mixtures or powdery mixtures of materials for glass forming are reacted at a high temperature and deposited on the top or end of a rotating glass rod which is initially deposited on a rotating base plate and grown in the form of a rod of a fixed powdery or vitreous state. It is possible to obtain the glass rod having a predetermined radial distribution of index of refraction.
摘要:
A method for producing a glass preform for use in the fabrication of an optical fiber which comprises inserting a core rod made of quartz glass in a cladding tube made of quartz glass added with fluorine, heating them from the outside of the cladding tube to fuse them together to form a primary glass preform comprising a core rod and a first cladding layer around the core rod, depositing SiO.sub.2 soot particles around the primary glass preform and thermally treating the soot deposited glass preform in the presence of a fluorine-containing compound to form a final glass preform from which an optical fiber is fabricated. From the glass preform produced by this method, an optical fiber having low attenuation of light transmission in a wide range of wave-length is fabricated.

A method for producing an optical fiber preform comprising injecting a glass raw material, a gaseous fluorine-containing material and oxygen gas from a first nozzle, inactive gas from a second nozzle which surrounds the first nozzle and hydrogen gas from a third nozzle which surrounds the second nozzle, flame hydrolyzing the glass raw material to synthesis fine glass particles and depositing the fine glass particles on a tip of a rotating seed rod to produce the optical fiber preform containing fluorine.

A process for producing an optical fiber preform which comprises forming a particulate glass rod in which the dopant concentration gradually increases toward the center of its cross section, and gradually heating the rod starting at a temperature below the minimum collapsing point of the fine glass particles in the center of the rod in such a manner that the softening of the rod proceeds from the center outward, to thereby produce a transparent glass rod.

A surface of an optical fiber is coated by a method for coating a surface of an optical fiber with carbon comprising steps of introducing an optical fiber in a reaction chamber in the same direction as the flow of a coating raw material comprising carbon, hydrogen and halogen atoms and depositing on the surface of the optical fiber a carbon layer formed from the raw material by chemical vapor deposition, whereby the coated optical fiber has improved initial tensile strength and absorbs less hydrogen.
摘要:
A superconducting ceramic wire is prepared from a superconducting ceramic-forming oxide composition by melting, the composition and quenching the melt to form a dense glass, which is soften and wire-drawn in a furnace. The resulting wire is heat-treated to form crystals and made into a superconducting ceramic wire. The wire has a flexibility and remarkable superconductivity which can further be improved by applying pressure to be made more dense and repeating the heat-treatment.
