Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to methods for preparing optical fiber preforms using modified chemical vapor deposition (MCVD), and more particularly to methods for preparing optical fibers with improved optical properties by eliminating index dips produced during processing steps method. In particular, by employing this method, multimode optical fibers capable of transmitting gigabits can be prepared without other auxiliary materials. Background technique
[0002] Figure 1a is a flow chart showing a method for preparing an optical fiber preform according to conventional MCVD.
[0003] In general, an optical fiber preform is prepared by a deposition step 100 and a shrinkage step 200-400. More specifically, the shrinking step includes a shrinking step 200 , an etching step 300 and a sealing step 400 .
[0004] As known to those skilled in the art, methods for preparing optical fiber preforms can be classified into external deposition methods and inte...
