VAD設備において、添加物を含まないシリカスートを形成した。これをガラス化設備において塩素を添加しつつガラス化し、透明なコアロッドを形成した。形成されたコアロッドには、塩素が10000ppm添加された。また、コアロッドの純シリカガラスに対する比屈折率差Δ1は0.1%であった。このコアロッドに対して、クラッド部分を形成すべくシリカスートの外付けを行った。コアロッドに外付けされたシリカスートを、SiF4を流しつつガラス化することにより、コアロッドの外周に、フッ素が添加されたクラッド層を形成した。このフッ素が添加されたクラッド層の純シリカガラスに対する比屈折率差Δ2は−0.255%であった。こうして形成されたガラス母材において、コア部を形成する部分の外径d1とクラッド部を形成する部分の外径d2との比d1:d2は、1:13.9であった。また、ガラス母材の外径は80mmであった。形成したガラス母材に対して、線引き速度を300m/minとし、線引き張力を18gfとした条件下で線引きを行って光ファイバを形成した。形成した光ファイバの伝送損失特性は、波長1.55μm帯の光の伝送損失が0.166dB/kmであり、波長1.31μm帯の光の伝送損失が0.296dB/kmであった。また、光ファイバのコア部とクラッド部との界面に生じている応力差は25MPaであった。また、この光ファイバの波長1.31μmにおけるモードフィールド径(MFD)は9.10μmであった。
実施例2〜20及び比較例1〜9については、以下の表1に示すように上記実施例1と一部条件を変更して光ファイバを製造した。
