Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for manufacturing an optical fiber preform, and more particularly, to a vapor axial deposition (VAD) apparatus and a vapor axial deposition method. Background technique
[0002] The vapor-phase axial deposition method is a method of depositing soot on a starting rod made of glass material by using first and second torches to grow into a core and cladding in the longitudinal direction, thereby obtaining soot The preform method. Subsequently, the soot preform is subjected to a sintering process and the like to obtain an optical fiber preform.
[0003] U.S. Patent No. 6,834,516 entitled "Manufacture of Optical Fiber Preform Using Improved VAD" and granted to Donald P. A vapor-phase axial deposition method for obtaining a soot preform with a uniform composition, in which an optical pyrometer is arranged together with a core torch.
[0004] However, such a vapor phase axial deposition method has th...
