Abstract
A method of manufacturing an optical fiber includes applying a curable resin composition containing a photopolymerization initiator so that an outer circumference of a glass fiber including a core and a cladding is coated, and forming a coating layer by radiating an ultraviolet ray to the curable resin composition and curing the curable resin composition. Forming the coating layer includes providing two or more non-radiation periods and intermittently radiating the ultraviolet ray three or more times so that a total time of the non-radiation periods is 0.010 seconds or more.
