Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the optical fiber of low losses in infrared ray region by making a conical preform by the use of silver halide and thallium halide and extruding this. CONSTITUTION:The preform for optical fiber whose core and clad are of the specific diameter ratio is formed by using, e.g., TlBr of high refractive index for the core part and TlCl of low refractive index for the clad part, out of silver halide, such as AgCl, AgBr, AgI, being infrared ray transmission materials having flexibility near room temperature, and thallium halide, such as TlCl, TlBr, TlI. This preform 2a is put in a vessel 7 and an electric oven 10 is heated to the specified temperature. When a pressing bar 6 is pushed by a hydraulic press or the like, the step-index type optical fiber of the same diameter ratio of the core and clad as that of the preform 2a comes out from the end of an extrusion die 8. This optical fiber is capable of efficiently leading the CO2 laser light of high energy density.
