Abstract

The method for manufacturing an optical fiber preform includes: a rod insertion step of inserting a glass rod (14) into a through hole (12) passing through a cladding glass body (11); a dummy rod integration step of plugging the first The solid dummy quartz rod (15) of the opening (12a) is integrated with the first end (11a) of the cladding glass body (11); and the front end sealing process is sealed at the second end of the cladding glass body (11) The second opening part (12b) of the through hole (12) in which the part (11b) is opened forms an inner hole (18) in which both ends of the through hole (12) are sealed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an optical fiber base material, an optical fiber base material, and a method for manufacturing an optical fiber. [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2017-154691 filed in Japan on August 9, 2017, and Japanese Patent Application No. 2018-122427 filed in Japan on June 27, 2018, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference . Background technique [0003] In order to increase the transmission capacity of optical fiber communication systems, optical fibers of various structures have been proposed in recent years. As an example, a multi-core optical fiber can be mentioned, for example. A multi-core optical fiber has a structure in which multiple cores are surrounded by a single cladding, and multiple signals can be transmitted using light propagating through each core. Therefore, a multi-core optical fiber can dramatically increase the a...
