Publication number: 20250102729Abstract: Methods for producing a multicore fiber comprise a method step in which a component group is reshaped to form the multicore fiber or a pre-form for the multicore fiber, which comprises a hollow cylinder comprising a central bore and a hollow cylinder longitudinal axis, which hollow cylinder comprises a cladding glass region made of cladding glass and a plurality of core glass regions occupied by a core glass, wherein at least part of the central bore is occupied by a glass filling material. In order to provide a method for producing multicore fibers without central signal core, in which the risk of rejects during the completion of the hollow glass cladding cylinder is reduced, a marker element made of marker glass adjacent to the glass filling material is used, which extends along the longitudinal axis of the central bore.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2023Publication date: March 27, 2025Inventors: Kay SCHUSTER, Michael LORENZ, Manuel ROSENBERGER, Michael HÜNERMANN, Tobias TIESS, Thomas KAYSER, Martin BÖTTCHER

Patent number: 9819036Abstract: A reformer is disclosed in one embodiment of the invention as including a channel to convey a preheated plurality of reactants containing both a feedstock fuel and an oxidant. A plasma generator is provided to apply an electrical potential to the reactants sufficient to ionize one or more of the reactants. These ionized reactants are then conveyed to a reaction zone where they are chemically transformed into synthesis gas containing a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. A heat transfer mechanism is used to transfer heat from an external heat source to the reformer to provide the heat of reformation.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2015Date of Patent: November 14, 2017Assignee: CERAMATEC, INC.Inventors: Joseph J Hartvigsen, Singaravelu Elangovan, Piotr Czernichowski, Michele Hollist, Michael Boettcher
