摘要: In a method of manufacturing porous glass base for optical fiber, a liquid organic siloxane raw material stored in a raw material tank of internal pressure P1 is controlled by a mass flow controller at a predetermined flow rate and pumped through pipe of internal pressure P2 to a vaporizer, the liquid raw material is vaporized in the vaporizer and supplied as a gas raw material to a burner, and the silica fine particles formed by burning the gas raw material in the burner are deposited to form a porous glass base material, where P1≤P2 is satisfied.

摘要: In some implementations, a substrate tube in a modified chemical vapor deposition process may rotate while glass precursors flow into the substrate tube at a fixed rate. Dopants may be delivered into the substrate tube while heat is applied to the substrate tube to deposit, on an inner wall of the substrate tube, a layer of material including the glass precursors and the dopants. A lateral position of an exit of an injection tube used to deliver the dopants may be adjusted while the substrate tube is rotated and heat is applied to the substrate tube such that the material deposited on the inner wall of the substrate tube has an azimuthally non-uniform doping concentration. Alternatively, a rotation of the substrate tube may be adjusted to create opposing temperature gradients within the substrate tube, causing non-uniform layer deposition to occur on different sides of the substrate tube in alternating passes.

摘要: A manufacturing method of a porous glass base material for optical fiber includes: supplying an organic siloxane raw material supplied from a raw material tank is fed to a vaporizer; mixing and vaporizing the raw material and carrier gas in the vaporizer; and externally depositing SiO2 fine particles through combustion reaction by supplying the mixed gas of raw the material and the carrier gas to the burner in the manufacturing apparatus of porous glass base material for optical fiber. Before starting to supply the raw material to a raw material gas supply pipe of the burner, the burner and the inside of a manufacturing apparatus of porous glass base material for optical fiber are pre-heated by flowing purge gas of 60° C. or higher into the raw material gas supply pipe and supplying combustible gas and combustion supporting gas to the burner.

摘要: A sintering apparatus comprising: a furnace core tube containing a porous glass base material for optical fiber whose longitudinal direction is along the axial direction; and a multi-stage heater in which two or more heaters surround the furnace core tube and are arranged in the axial direction of the furnace core tube to form a heating area in the furnace core tube, is used. The sintering method includes a step in which the base material is heated in the heating area to perform a first dehydration process; and a step in which the base material is moved so that the position in the longitudinal direction of the base material where the dehydration was identified as the most insufficient, is at the position in the axial direction of the furnace core tube where the temperature is highest in the heating area, and then a second dehydration process is performed.

摘要: The invention relates to exemplary methods, devices, and systems for heating an elongate silica cylinder to form a core-rod for optical fibers. An exemplary heating device includes an elongate cavity, an elongate liner bounding the cavity, a heating element in a heating element space surrounding the liner, the liner separating the heating element space from the cavity, and a gas flushing device for effecting a flow of gas at least through the heating element space. An exemplary method includes providing the elongate silica cylinder such that it extends through the cavity, heating the cylinder locally beyond its softening temperature, and effecting a flow of argon and nitrogen gas during the heating.
