Abstract
Description
中実のガラスプリフォーム前駆体、すなわち「ケイン」をいくつかの細長い小片に切断して、複数のガラスプリフォーム前駆体を形成した。このケインは、約8重量%のGeO2−約92重量%のSiO2を含有するドープト中央領域を有してなるものであった。この中央領域は、ケインの外径の約1/3の直径を有した。ケインの外側部分は実質的に純粋なSiO2であった。シリカスートをガラスプリフォーム前駆体の一片上に堆積させて、複合光ファイバプリフォームを形成した。複合光ファイバプリフォームを、60分間に亘り1225℃でCl2ガスの雰囲気に曝露し、次いで、60分間に亘り1225℃でCl2ガスの雰囲気にもう一度曝露した。この複合光ファイバプリフォームは、重水素雰囲気に全く曝露しなかった。次いで、複合光ファイバプリフォームのスート層を固結させ、このように得られたガラス光ファイバプリフォームを光ファイバに線引きした。この光ファイバにおいて測定した1350nmから1420nmまでの波長でのスペクトル減衰が図12の線Aとして現れている。
シリカスートを具体例1のケイン(すなわちガラスプリフォーム前駆体)の別の細長い小片上に堆積させて、別の複合光ファイバプリフォームを形成した。この場合の複合光ファイバプリフォームは、60分間に亘り1225℃でCl2ガスの雰囲気に曝露し、次いで、15分間に亘り約1000℃と約1225℃との間でArガスのパージ雰囲気に曝露し、さらに15分間に亘り1100℃で3%のD2ガスおよび97%のArガスの交換雰囲気に曝露した。次いで、この複合光ファイバプリフォームのスート層を固結させ、このように得られたガラス光ファイバプリフォームを光ファイバに線引きした。この光ファイバにおいて測定した1350nmから1420nmまでの波長のスペクトル減衰が図12の線Bとして現れている。
シリカスートを具体例1のケイン(すなわちガラスプリフォーム前駆体)のさらに別の細長い小片上に堆積させて、さらに別の複合光ファイバプリフォームを形成した。この場合の複合光ファイバプリフォームは、60分間に亘り1225℃でCl2ガスの雰囲気に曝露し、次いで、15分間に亘り1100℃で3%のD2ガスおよび97%のArガスの交換雰囲気に曝露し、さらに60分間に亘り約1225℃でCl2ガスの雰囲気に曝露した。次いで、この複合光ファイバプリフォームのスート層を固結させ、このように得られたガラス光ファイバプリフォームを光ファイバに線引きした。この光ファイバにおいて測定した1350nmから1420nmまでの波長のスペクトル減衰が図12の線Cとして現れている。
シリカスートを具体例1のケイン(すなわちガラスプリフォーム前駆体)のさらにまた別の細長い小片上に堆積させて、さらにまた別の複合光ファイバプリフォームを形成した。この場合の複合光ファイバプリフォームは、60分間に亘り1225℃でCl2ガスの雰囲気に曝露し、次いで、15分間に亘り約1000℃と約1225℃との間でArガスのパージ雰囲気に曝露し、15分間に亘り1100℃で3%のD2ガスおよび97%のArガスの交換雰囲気に曝露した。次いで、この複合光ファイバプリフォームのスート層を固結させ、このように得られたガラス光ファイバプリフォームを光ファイバに線引きした。この光ファイバにおいて測定した1350nmから1420nmまでの波長のスペクトル減衰が図12の線Dとして現れている。
