Abstract: A method for producing a glass preform for use in the fabrication of an optical fiber which comprises inserting a core rod made of quartz glass in a cladding tube made of quartz glass added with fluorine, heating them from the outside of the cladding tube to fuse them together to form a primary glass preform comprising a core rod and a first cladding layer around the core rod, depositing SiO.sub.2 soot particles around the primary glass preform and thermally treating the soot deposited glass preform in the presence of a fluorine-containing compound to form a final glass preform from which an optical fiber is fabricated. From the glass preform produced by this method, an optical fiber having low attenuation of light transmission in a wide range of wave-length is fabricated.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a technique for producing polarization-preserving and single polarization optical fibers. As disclosed, high birefringence is introduced into the preform by deforming the fiber preform such that a cladding layer becomes flat and highly conformable, while the core remains hard and substantially round. In particular, a cladding layer with a relatively low melting point is utilized such that when the preform is heated the cladding becomes liquified while the core remains solid. The preform may then be deformed so that the cladding layer is substantially flattened. Standard drawing techniques may then be utilized to form polarization-preserving fibers and single polarization fibers from the preform.

Abstract: A single mode optical waveguide is fabricated in a manner such that the core thereof is subjected to a stress-induced birefringence. This characteristic is accomplished by introducing into the cladding region of the fiber on opposite sides of the core longitudinally extending regions of glass having a thermal coefficient of expansion different from that of the remainder of the cladding. A number of novel techniques are disclosed for forming such a fiber.

Abstract: A method of making solid glass articles by the flame hydrolysis technique. A thin stratum of low viscosity glass soot is applied to the surface of a mandrel. First and second coatings of glass soot are deposited on the surface of the thin stratum to form a porous preform. The refractive index of the soot particles of the first coating is greater than that of the soot of the second coating, and the soot of the first coating has a viscosity lower than that of the second coating. The mandrel is removed, and the soot preform is subjected to a high temperature whereby it is consolidated to form a dense glass blank. The glass surface tension and the relative viscosities of the inner and outer portions of the preform cause the aperture to close during the consolidation process. The thin stratum, which preferably includes P.sub.2 O.sub.5, smoothes over the damage caused by removing the mandrel and reduces or even eliminates seed formation at the axis of the resultant glass blank. The blank may be heated and drawn into a filament, or it may be sliced into optical windows, lenses or the like.

The SiO.sub.2 layer can alternatively contain fluorine instead of B.sub.2 O.sub.3. A further SiO.sub.2 layer can be deposited thereon to improve the spinning processability and lower the index of refraction of the B.sub.2 O.sub.3 containing layer.
