Abstract
A vapor phase axial deposition (VAD) method using a multiple burner with single source gas nozzle is presented. Fibers fabricated by this technique feature very low loss and wide bandwidth characteristics, although the refractive index profile slightly deviates from the ideal, on the outer side of the core part. This technique is expected to provide a simple method of fabricating low loss and wide bandwidth fibers.
