The basic techniques for fabrication of all glass optical waveguide are:
The MCVD was widely adopted to produce very low loss graded
index fibers. The glass vapor particles arising from the reaction of the constituent metal halide
gases and oxygen flow through the inside of a revolving silica tube. As SiO2 particles are
deposited, they are sintered to a clear glass layer by a oxy hydrogen torch which travels back and
forth along the tube. When the desired thickness of glass has been deposited, the vapor flow is
shut off and the tube is heated strongly to cause it to collapse into a solid rod perform.
