Oxygen influence on drawing-induced defect centres and radiation-induced loss in pure silica optical fibres

  • 1. NNT Electrical Communications Labs., Tokai, Ibaraki (Japan)

Description

Drawing-induced defect centres are investigated in pure silica optical fibres drawn from the preforms consolidated in 02-including atmospheres. The drawing-induced E' centres decrease while the peroxy radicals increase with increasing flow rate of O2 into the consolidation furnace. The γ-ray-induced loss of these fibres is also examined.
