  • Methods for producing optical fiber by focusing high viscosity liquid
    Publication number: 20040216492
    Abstract: The invention is directed to the production of optical fibers from optical fiber preforms using flow physics. The present methods provide for the “drawing” of an optical fiber preform using focusing of the preform by a surrounding fluid, e.g. a heated gas.
