    Abstract: A single-mode optical fiber includes a central core surrounded by an outer cladding. The optical fiber includes at least first and second depressed claddings positioned between the central core and the outer cladding. The central core typically has a radius of between about 3.5 microns and 5.5 microns and a refractive-index difference with the outer cladding of between about −1×10−3 and 3×10−3. The first depressed cladding typically has an outer radius of between about 9 microns and 15 microns and a refractive-index difference with the outer cladding of between about −5.5×10−3 and −2.5×10−3. The second depressed cladding typically has an outer radius of between about 38 microns and 42 microns and a refractive-index difference with the first depressed cladding of between about −0.5×10−3 and 0.5×10−3.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus relate to optical fibers suitable for use in sensing applications exposed to radiation environments. The fibers include a core of pure silica or chlorine doped silica surrounded by a fluorinated silica cladding. These glasses for the core and cladding utilize dopants that resist radiation-induced attenuation. A two step process for forming the cladding can achieve necessary concentrations of the fluorine by performing a soot deposition process in a different environment from a consolidation process where the soot is sintered into a glass. Concentration of fluorine doped into the cladding layer enables obtaining a numerical aperture that confines a mono-mode of the fiber to resist bend-induced attenuation. Dimensions of the fiber further facilitate bending ability of the fiber.

    Abstract: The present invention provides nanometer-sized diameter silica fibers that exhibit high diameter uniformity and surface smoothness. The silica fibers can have diameters in a range of a about 20 nm to about 1000 nm. An exemplary method according to one embodiment of the invention for generating such fibers utilizes a two-step process in which in an initial step a micrometer sized diameter silica preform fiber is generated, and in a second step, the silica preform is drawn while coupled to a support element to form a nanometer sized diameter silica fiber. The portion of the support element to which the preform is coupled is maintained at a temperature suitable for drawing the nansized fiber, and is preferably controlled to exhibit a temporally stable temperature profile.

    Abstract: A synthetic quartz glass ingot is prepared by vapor phase hydrolyzing or oxidatively decomposing a silica feedstock in a flame to form fine particles of silica, depositing the silica particles on a target and melting and vitrifying the particles to form a synthetic quartz glass ingot on the target while the target is moved back and forth. The method further comprises: (i) continuously feeding the silica feedstock at a predetermined rate, (ii) keeping the flame in constant contact with an overall growing face, (iii) cyclically repeating the back and forth movement of the target at a predetermined speed, and (iv) maintaining the shape of the growing ingot unchanged.
