Abstract

The invention discloses an optical fiber preform preparation method. A core layer and a part of coating layer of an optical fiber preform are manufactured by adopting an in-tube vapor deposition process. The optical fiber preform preparation method is characterized in that a large-diameter glass tube is serially connected to a gas inlet end of a glass lining tube, an alkali metal raw material is arranged in the large-diameter glass tube, a heater is arranged on the periphery of the large-diameter glass tube, the heater is turned off in the process of depositing for forming the coating layer, and coating layer raw material gas enters the glass lining tube and deposits to form the coating layer; in the process of depositing for forming the core layer, the heater is turned on, core layer raw material gas carrying the alkali metal raw material volatilized due to heating enters the glass lining tube and deposits to form the core layer. The alkali metal doping in the optical fiber preform preparation method is preformed in the core preform deposition process, the alkali metal content distribution is evener, the problem of uneven alkali metal distribution in the glass tube by adopting a diffusion process can be solved, and optical attenuation can be obviously reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing an optical fiber preform, belonging to the technical field of optical fiber communication. Background technique [0002] Optical fiber communication has the characteristics of large transmission capacity, long transmission distance, and fast transmission speed, and is widely used in optical communication networks such as long-distance trunk networks, metropolitan area networks, and access networks. Reducing the optical fiber attenuation coefficient can effectively increase the transmission distance of the optical fiber communication system, greatly reduce the number and cost of relay stations, and is of great significance for optimizing the structure of the transmission system and reducing operating costs. How to reduce the optical fiber attenuation coefficient has become a hot research topic for major optical fiber manufacturers. [0003] The existing technologies for reducing the optical fiber attenuat...
