    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for precisely elongating a glass preform of an optical fiber body having a desired outer diameter. In this method, a predetermined part of the glass preform is elongated as tensile stress is applied to one end of the glass preform while a predetermined part of the glass preform is heated and softened successively from one end toward the other end of the glass preform. In this elongating operation, while the outer diameter of the softening portion of the glass preform is measured, the tensile stress is adjusted such that the outer diameter of the softening portion coincides with a preset value of the control outer diameter. In particular, this method is characterized in that the preset value of the control outer diameter is changed at least during a predetermined period until termination of elongation or during a predetermined period from the start of elongation.

    摘要: In order to provide an improved process for the production of a glass preform for an optical fiber which includes substantially no bubble formation therein and also has a substantially uniform shape, the present invention provides a process for the production of a glass preform which is at least partially formed from silica. In particular, a body is formed on a rod by depositing fine glass particles thereon, preferably by the vapor phase reactions, and heating the body to vitrify under a reduced atmosphere or a vacuumed atmosphere so that the glass preform is produced. According to this process, the heating includes a first heating step of degassing the body at a first heating temperature, a second heating step of shrinking the body at a second heating temperature which is higher than the first heating temperature and which is lower than a third heating temperature, and a third heating step of vitrifying the shrunken body at the third temperature which corresponds to a vitrification temperature of the fine glass particles so as to produce the glass preform.

    摘要: In a process for producing an optical fiber preform, a starting member and a glass synthesizing burner are reciprocated relative to each other so that fine glass particles synthesized with the burner are deposited layer by layer on the starting member, and a heating power of the glass synthesizing burner in a nonsteady outside diameter portion at either end of the soot preform is adjusted to control the temperature of the nonsteady outside diameter portion at either end against local elevation. The starting member is formed of a transparent glass rod that is held within a vessel and rotatable about its own axis, the burner is fitted on a lateral side of the vessel at right angles to the rotating axis of the starting member and is movable towards or away from the starting member.

    摘要: An optical fiber glass preform is preheated so that it is uniformly preheated therethrough, then a surface of the preform is abraded by an oxyhydrogen flame to obtain a smooth optical fiber glass preform. This method is advantageous when relatively larger diameter preforms are treated in this manner because the step of uniformly preheating the preform reduces or eliminates a temperature differential therein. The temperature differential could otherwise cause the preform to crack during cooling.

    摘要: The invention is a method for producing a porous preform for use in the fabrication of an optical fiber at least two burners synthesize glass soot particles, one of which generates a double-layer flame and one of which is used for forming a core part of the preform. The method comprises the steps of supplying SiCl.sub.4 and optionally GeCl.sub.4 to the inner flame of the double-layer flame, and only SiCl.sub.4 to an outer flame of the double-layer flame to flame hydrolyze the supplied compounds and synthesize glass soot particles. Compounds SiCl.sub.4 and GeCl.sub.4 as glass-forming raw materials are supplied to the burner for forming the core part of the preform by depositing the generated glass soot particles on the lower end of a rotating starting member. The generated porous preform comprises a core part containing at least partly GeO.sub.2, and a surface having a low concentration of GeO.sub.2 which reduces cracking or peeling.
