Problems solved by technology

The titanium-doped outer-clad optical waveguide fiber is manufactured by the external vapor deposition process. The titanium-doped process and the rod-making process are carried out on the same equipment. The original equipment needs to be greatly improved, and the investment is large. Moreover, the deposition efficiency of titanium is low by this method.

Abstract

A process for preparing high-strength antifatigue optical fibre includes synthesizing Ti-quartz micropowder by sol-gel method, preparing Ti-doped quartz glass tube, preparing core rod by chemical gas-phase depostition of plasma, putting the core rod in said tube, and drawing fibre. Its advantages include high deposition efficiency of Ti, and less investment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a production process of an optical waveguide fiber, in particular to a production process for manufacturing a high-strength anti-fatigue optical waveguide fiber by using a titanium-doped outer cladding. Background technique [0002] As a typical inorganic non-metallic material, the inherent strength of quartz glass is very high. Theoretically, the tensile strength of quartz fiber is several times higher than that of metal fibers (such as copper wire, aluminum wire, etc.) order of magnitude. However, in practical applications, the surface of the SiO2-based glass bare optical fiber used for optical fiber communication is easily polluted (mainly impurity particles introduced during the drawing process) or corroded (mainly water vapor, ammonia or other corrosive gases), forming Defects or stress centers form micro-cracks that grow randomly under the action of tensile stress (the process of random growth ...
