Problems solved by technology

However, the method of thermal annealing needs to be heated to 200°C to 300°C to effectively reduce the attenuation caused by radiation. Such a high temperature environment may damage or reduce the function of the component and its surrounding components.
[0005] In addition, photoannealing methods have been proposed in the prior art to reduce the radiation-induced attenuation of passive single-mode fibers, such as glass fibers and germanium-doped fibers, as well as erbium-doped fibers, but with limited success

Abstract

The invention provides a manufacturing method of a low-loss optical fiber and manufacturing equipment. The manufacturing method comprises the following steps of: arranging a water vapor environment out of a fiber drawing furnace; and passing a hot optical fiber generated in the fiber drawing furnace through the water vapor environment after stretching out of the port of the fiber drawing furnace. According to the manufacturing method and corresponding manufacturing equipment provided by the invention, the crystal structure in the optical fiber is improved by way of water vapor annealing, so that the inner crystal structure is optimum, the rayleigh scattering of the optical fiber is reduced, and therefore, the loss is reduced to minimum 0.18db / km.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical fiber manufacturing, in particular to a method and equipment for manufacturing low-loss optical fibers. Background technique [0002] With the development of optical fiber technology, the long-distance transmission of optical fiber is getting bigger and bigger. Due to the high attenuation of the existing optical fiber, the transmission distance is short. In the long-distance transmission process, it is necessary to increase the relay station to enhance the signal. The price is expensive, and operators hope to have optical fibers that can reduce construction costs during long-distance transmission without affecting normal transmission loss. The loss of optical fiber is divided into intrinsic loss and manufacturing loss. Intrinsic loss is the inherent loss of optical fiber material and cannot be avoided. The manufacturing loss of optical fiber is produced in the process of manufacturing optical fiber, which ...
