    摘要: According to an embodiment of the invention a method of manufacturing optical fiber cane comprises the steps of: (i) providing a core rod manufactured of relatively low viscosity glass; (ii) depositing SiO2 based soot around the core rod to form a soot preform, the soot being of relatively high viscosity material such that the softening point of the low viscosity glass is at least 200° C. lower than the viscosity of the high viscosity outer core region; and (iii) consolidating the soot of the soot preform by exposure to hot zone at temperatures of 1000° C.-1600° C. The soot is consolidated by heating the outer portion of the soot preform at a relatively fast heating rate, the heating rate being sufficient to densify the soot, so as to render the densified material with enough rigidity to confine the heated core rod and to prevent the heated core rod from puddling.

    摘要: A method of making an optical fiber preform includes depositing silica glass soot on the inside of a substrate tube via a chemical vapor deposition operation. The silica glass soot is consolidated into silica glass under controlled conditions such that the consolidated silica glass on the interior of the substrate tube contains a non-periodic array of gaseous voids in a cladding region of the optical fiber preform. The optical fiber preform may be used to produce an optical fiber having a core and a cladding containing voids formed from the gaseous voids of the cladding region of the optical fiber preform. The core of the optical fiber has a first index of refraction and the cladding has a second index of refraction less than that of the core.
