Abstract: Disclosed is a method of making a hydrogen resistant optical waveguide fiber. The soot preform is heated and then immersed in a GeCl4 gas. A reduced metal species is thus incorporated into the glass soot prior to sintering or consolidation of the soot preform. A hydrogen absorption band around 1530 nm is substantially eliminated from waveguides made from a precursor gas treated preform.

Abstract: A system for delivering a liquid reactant at high flow rates to an oxidation/flame hydrolysis glass soot deposition site. A first liquid only reactant is delivered to a flash vaporization chamber to form a thin film and mixed with oxygen after vaporization. Additional vaporized reactants are thereafter mixed with the vaporized first liquid prior to delivery to an oxidation/flame hydrolysis burner to form a glass soot outer cladding layer on a soot preform. The soot preform is subsequently fused to form a high quality glass blank for drawing into optical fiber.

Abstract: A single mode optical waveguide having reduced polarization mode dispersion and a method of making such a waveguide is disclosed. Perturbations (6, 8) are introduced into the waveguide core (4) to couple power between the two polarization modes. A model calculation shows that the perturbation length may be of the order of the correlation length. The inventive waveguide is robust in that polarization mode dispersion is reduced even if perturbations (6, 8) are impressed on the fiber after manufacture.

Abstract: Disclosed is a single mode optical waveguide fiber having periodic perturbations (2) in the core to provide a birefringence which mixes the polarization modes of launched ligth. In addition, pertubations (4) are introduced into the core which serve to manage total dispersion. The total dispersion of preselected segments (6, 8) of the waveguide are caused to change sign so that the sum of products, total dispersion times length (13, 15), algebraically add to a preselected value. The two distinct core perturbation types serve to control both polarization mode dispersion and total dispersion. Methods for making the subject waveguide are also discussed.
