    摘要: The present invention provides an optical fiber preform manufacturing method and a burner apparatus employed for this method. In this manufacturing method, when glass particles are synthesized in an oxy-hydrogen flame emitted from a burner to form a porous optical fiber preform by depositing glass particles in the radial direction of a starting member, the relationship between the flow rate vm (m/sec) of a source material gas or a mixed gas of the source material gas and an additive gas discharged from the burner, and the flow rate vs (m/sec) of an inert gas is such that −0.06 vm+1.4≦vs≦−0.02 vm+1.8, and vs≧0.40, while the relationship between the flow volume Vm (1/min) of the source material gas discharged from the burner and the flow volume Vs (1/min) of the inert gas is such that Vs/Vm≦0.2.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a glass particles deposit body that is formed on the periphery of a starting rod by an OVD method, whereby an optical fiber with enhanced optical transmission characteristics can be produced by reducing the number of disconnections and preventing the alien substances from being mixed into the glass particles deposit body. This invention involves the use of the OVD method in which (1) before or after starting to deposit fine glass particles, a reaction vessel is enclosed to suck and exhaust a gas within the reaction vessel after a removal operation of deposited fine glass particles from the inside of the reaction vessel, (2) when not in operation, a purge gas is passed at a flow rate of 1 m/min or more through each gas line of a burner, (3) when not in operation, a clean air (CA) is introduced into the reaction vessel to make the inner pressure of vessel positive, or (1) and (2) or (1), (2) and (3) are combined.

    摘要: Burners (40) for producing fused silica boules are provided. The burners employ a tube-in-tube (301-306) design with flats (56, 50) on some of the tubes (305, 301) being used to limit the cross-sectional area of certain passages (206, 202) within the burner and/or to atomize a silicon-containing, liquid source material, such as OMCTS. To avoid the possibility of flashback, the burner has separate passages for fuel (205) and oxygen (204, 206), i.e., the burner employs nozzle mixing, rather than premixing, of the fuel and oxygen. The burners are installed in burner holes (26) formed in the crown (20) of a furnace and form a seal with those holes so that ambient air cannot be entrained into the furnace through the holes. An external air cooled jacket (60) can be used to hold the temperature of the burner below a prescribed upper limit, e.g., 400° C.
