Disclosed is a method of producing an elliptic core optical fiber, in which a original preform having a circular core disposed at the center of a circular clad is processed to flatten on its periphery to form a processed preform that is then drawn with heating into an elliptic core optical fiber. According to the invention, the form of the processed preform used for producing an elliptic core optical fiber with desired specific dimensions can be designed using pre-obtained correlations based on the dimensions of the elliptic core optical fiber. If the processed preform designed like this is drawn with heating, an elliptic core optical fiber with desired specific dimensions can be reliably and easily produced.
172 Apparatus and method for manufacturing fiber gratings US09925590 2001-08-09 US20020071881A1 2002-06-13 Victor Il?apos;ich Kopp; Azriel Zelig Genack; Richard Mead
In accordance with the apparatus and method of the present invention an optical fiber is heated and twisted to produce a periodic modulation of the dielectric constant along the fiber axis. This structure can be used in any application that utilizes Bragg grating optical fibers. A preform is drawn through a heater and the resulting optical fiber is twisted about its longitudinal axis. The refractive index modulation in the optical fiber arises from birefringence induced by stress in the optical fiber that is twisted after being subjected to an uneven heat distribution during the drawing process. The refractive index is modulated by drawing and twisting the optical fiber from a specially constructed preform which is non-cylindrically symmetrical.

176 Polarization mode coupled single mode waveguide US513260 1995-08-10 US5867616A 1999-02-02 A. Joseph Antos; Venkata A. Bhagavatula; William J. Cherenak; Dipakbin Q. Chowdhury; Daniel A. Nolan
A single mode optical waveguide having reduced polarization mode dispersion and a method for making such a waveguide is disclosed. Perturbations are introduced into the waveguide core to couple power between the two polarization modes. A model calculation shows that the perturbation length may be of the order of the correlation length. The inventive waveguide is robust in that polarization mode dispersion is reduced even if perturbations are impressed on the fiber after manufacture.
177 Partially detached core optical waveguide US50509 1993-04-20 US5307436A 1994-04-26 George E. Berkey
An optical waveguide fiber is made substantially bend less resistant by providing a core member partially detached from a cladding member. A core rod is suspended within a cladding preform. The assembly is heated and drawn into a waveguide fiber. The partial detachment is achieved by proper choice of preform dimensions and drawing parameters. Alternatively, a positive pressure may be applied to the preform interior to produce the partial detachment. The partial detachment of the core member from the cladding substantially isolates the core member from external forces, thereby making the waveguide substantially bend resistant. The preferred detachment fraction is more than 95% of the core member periphery. Essentially any waveguide which can be fabricated using a core rod inserted in a cladding tube, can be made to have a partially detached core member. The waveguide types to which the invention applies include single mode, multimode and polarization retaining single mode. To obtain further core member isolation, a waveguide may be fabricated which has a first cladding partially attached to a second cladding and the core member partially attached to the second cladding. Making bend resistance intrinsic to the waveguide, allows greater freedom in choice and application of waveguide coatings and cable designs.

180 Method of making polarization retaining fiber with an elliptical core, with collapsed apertures US728276 1991-07-11 US5149349A 1992-09-22 George E. Berkey; Robert M. Hawk; Steven H. Tarcza
Disclosed is a method of making a polarization retaining single-mode optical fiber. There is initially formed a draw blank having diametrically opposed longitudinal apertures in the cladding glass parallel to the core glass region. The draw blank is drawn into a fiber under such conditions that the apertures close as the fiber is being drawn. The flow of surrounding glass, including the core glass region, toward the collapsing apertures, causes the core to assume an elliptical shape. The apertures are of such cross-sectional area and spacing from the core that the core develops the desired aspect ratio.
