摘要:
A deposition system for depositing a chemical vapor onto a workpiece is disclosed, including a deposition chamber having a plurality of components for performing chemical vapor deposition on the workpiece. The workpiece is held by a lathe that rotates the workpiece relative to chemical burners that deposit silica soot on the workpiece. The deposition system has a gas panel for regulating the flow of gases and vapors into the deposition chamber, and a computer for controlling operation of the gas panel and the components in the deposition chamber. Multiple sets of chemical burners are disposed longitudinally along the length of the workpiece. Each set of burners is separated from other sets, such that each set of burners deposit silica particles onto generally different portions of a workpiece. The respective portions include an overlap segment in which one or more burners from one burner set will deposit silica particles on the same portion of the workpiece as one or more burners from another set.

A method for producing rod lenses with an enveloping diameter of the rod lens face of up to 200 mm and an edge length of at least 800 mm. The method is characterized in that fabrication is performed from a cylindrical rod lens element made from synthetic quartz glass material configured as a fused silica ingot. This is performed using a flame hydrolysis method with a direct one stage deposition process of SIOx particles from a flame stream onto die that rotates and is moveable in a linear manner with respect to the flame stream.

A deposition system for depositing a chemical vapor onto a workpiece, including a deposition chamber having a plurality of components for performing chemical vapor deposition on the workpiece. The deposition chamber includes an inner skin made of Hasteloy for sealing the plurality of components and the workpiece from the air surrounding the deposition system, and an outer skin that encloses the inner skin and is separated from the inner skin by an air gap. The outer skin includes vents that create a convection current in the air gap between the inner skin and outer skin of the deposition chamber. The deposition system also has a gas panel for regulating the flow of gases and vapors into the deposition chamber, and a computer for controlling operation of the gas panel and the components in the deposition chamber.

Glass can be synthesized and deposited at a high rate by the inside CVD method using a plasma burner in a manner such that unconsolidated portions or bubbles are little generated. The method includes a step of depositing a glass film on the inner wall surface of a starting pipe. In a first aspect, temperature the pipe is controlled not to exceed (1800+100×d)° C., a temperature of (1100+100×d)° C. or higher being continued for 20 seconds or more at each point of the pipe, where d (mm) represents the wall thickness of the pipe. In a second aspect, the burner includes at least two inlets and has an inner diameter of 80 mm or more, and the deposition step is performed in the relationship, 150 mm/s

摘要:
Three or more glass particle synthesizing burners are arranged to be opposed to a rotating glass rod. The glass rod and the glass particle synthesizing burners are reciprocated in parallel and relatively to deposit glass particles synthesized by the burners on the surface of the glass rod, thereby producing a soot body. The glass particle synthesizing conditions of the burners arranged at both ends are changed to have a greater deposition amount of glass particles per unit time in part or all of its movement range than other burners.
摘要:
In a known method for producing an SiO2 blank, SiO2 particles are formed in a burner flame assigned to a deposition burner and are deposited under the effect of an electrical field on a deposition surface of a carrier rotating about its longitudinal axis, said at least one deposition burner being reciprocated in a predetermined sequence of movement along the developing blank between turn-around points. Starting from said method, in order to obtain blanks of a predetermined, in particular axially homogeneous, density and mass distribution, it is suggested according to the invention that the geometrical shape of the burner flame should be varied by the electrical field in dependence upon the position of the deposition burner during the sequence of movement. An apparatus which is suited for carrying out the method comprises a carrier which is rotatable about its longitudinal axis, a deposition burner for producing SiO2 particles in a burner flame, a drive device by means of which the deposition burner can be reciprocated along the carrier, and a pair of electrodes which is connected to a source of voltage for producing an electrical field which is operative in the area of the burner flame and which, when viewed along the path of movement of the deposition burner, is locally inhomogeneous or variable in time in dependence upon the position of the deposition burner during the sequence of movement of the deposition burner.
