    摘要: Disclosed are an optical fiber preform manufacturing apparatus and method in which processes for shrinking and closing a deposited tube are conducted using a device suitable for those processes, which device is other than the device used in a deposition process for forming the deposited tube on the inner surface of a preform tube, thereby reducing the processing time while reducing the amount of OH penetrated from the preform tube into a vitreous component of the deposited tube, thereby achieving a reduction in OH loss. In accordance with the optical fiber preform manufacturing apparatus and method, operations are conducted which involve setting the heating temperature of a circular heater to a temperature lower than the softening point of a deposited tube, exhausting contaminants existing in the interior of the deposited tube while moving the circular heater at a desired temperature, setting the heating temperature of the circular heater to a temperature not lower than the softening point of the deposited tube, and shrinking and closing the deposited tube while moving the circular heater to a desired temperature.

    摘要: An optical fiber preform manufacturing method whereby a clad layer and core layer are deposited on the inner surface of a preform tube for forming a deposited tube. One end of the deposited tube is shrunk and closed. The deposited tube which has a closed end is arranged extending vertically through a circular heater. A heat is applied to the deposited tube at a temperature lower than the softening point of a deposited tube, exhausting contaminants existing in the interior of the deposited tube while moving the circular heater. The heating temperature of the circular heater is then set to a temperature not lower than the softening point of the deposited tube-to shrink and close the deposited tube.

    摘要: A cooler of an optical fiber draw tower, situated below a melting furnace for melting a preform for an optical fiber, for cooling the optical fiber drawn from the preform melted in the melting furnace, includes at least one heat exchanger installed with a predetermined length surrounding the optical fiber drawn from the melting furnace, for cooling the drawn optical fiber. The heat exchanger is formed of a thermoelectric cooler (TEC) for taking electrical energy through one heat absorbing surface to emit heat to the other heat emitting surface and has a tubular shape in which the heat absorbing surface of the TEC surrounds the optical fiber drawn from the melting furnace along the drawing direction by a predetermined length, and the drawn optical fiber is cooled as it passes through the tubular TEC. Also, the cooler further includes an auxiliary cooler attached to the heat emitting surface of the TEC, for cooling the emitted heat. Therefore, the cooler can enhance the cooling effect, so that the drawing of the optical fiber can be sped up without increasing the height of the optical fiber draw tower.

    摘要: A photonic crystal fiber (PCF) preform, from which a photonic crystal fiber is manufactured, includes a rod-shaped substrate with holes longitudinally formed therethrough in a photonic lattice structure, and material layers having at least two different indices of refraction. The material layers are disposed in the holes, respectively. Distribution of index of refraction of the photonic crystal fiber preform is controlled by arrangement of the material layers. Consequently, an optical fiber with very low optical loss, very low optical nonlinearity and excellent transmission characteristics can be easily manufactured, and an optical fiber with various characteristics, differing depending upon the lattice structure, can be realized.
