20100186453 | METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A BLANK MOLD FOR OPTICAL FIBERS - In a known method for the production of a blank mold for optical fibers, a fluorine-doped SiO | 07-29-2010 |
20110274129 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A CYLINDRICAL OPTICAL COMPONENT OF QUARTZ GLASS AND OPTICALLY ACTIVE COMPONENT OBTAINED BY SAID METHOD - Cylindrical optical components of quartz glass are known, which have an inner zone made of an inner zone glass, which extends in the direction of the longitudinal axis and is surrounded by a jacket zone made of a jacket zone glass, the average pt wall thickness thereof varying at least over a part of its length in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the component. The aim of the invention is to provide a method that allows a simple and cost-effective production of such an optical component from quartz glass. A method is proposed according to the invention, comprising the following method steps: (a) providing a first parison made of an inner zone glass, which has a first contact surface on the end face, said contact surface having a conical external contour; (b) providing a second parison from the jacket zone glass; (c) embedding the contact surface with a conical external contour into the jacket zone glass and welding the contact surface to the jacket zone glass, thereby forming a composite parison which has a cone-shaped inner zone area of inner zone glass in a contact area, said inner zone area being surrounded by a jacket zone having the shape of an inner cone; and (d) elongation of the composite parison to form the optical component or a preproduct of the component. | 11-10-2011 |
20140208802 | PLASMA DEPOSITION PROCESS FOR PRODUCING AN OPTICAL PREFORM WITH A CLADDING GLASS LAYER OF FLUORINE-DOPED QUARTZ GLASS - In plasma deposition processes for producing an optical preform according to the POD method, a cladding glass layer composed of fluorine-doped quartz glass is produced by means of a plasma torch on a cylindrical substrate body composed of quartz glass, said substrate body rotating about the longitudinal axis thereof. In this case, the plasma torch performs a reversing relative movement between two turning points (A; B) along the substrate body. In order, proceeding therefrom, to achieve a high fluorine doping in conjunction with a dopant distribution that is as uniform as possible axially, the invention proposes that a heat element has a heating effect on the region of one turning point (A; B) when the plasma torch is situated in the region of the other turning point (B; A). | 07-31-2014 |
20150017440 | QUARTZ GLASS TUBE AS A SEMI-FINISHED PRODUCT FOR AN OPTICAL COMPONENT AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAID QUARTZ GLASS TUBE - A quartz glass tube as a semi-finished product for an optical component that has an inner bore extending along a tube centre axis for the acceptance of a core rod and a tube wall limited by an inner casing surface and an outer casing surface is already known; within said tube wall an inner region made of a first quartz glass and an outer region made of a second quartz glass with a different index of refraction surrounding the inner region contact one another at a contact surface which runs around the centre axis. In order to provide a quartz glass on this basis that facilitates the production of optical components for special applications such as laser-activated optical components in wand or fibre form, the invention states that the contact surface has a non-round course in the radial cross-section and the inner casing surface has a circular course. | 01-15-2015 |
