Abstract

A method of producing high-purity transparent vitreous silica body through flame hydrolysis of high-purity silane type gas, comprising forming the width in the sectional direction of the reduction area of said flame so as to be about more than 1.5 times as against the diameter of the formed vitreous silica body, and the length of the reduction area of said flame so as to be about more than 2.5 times as against said diameter, while retaining the head portion of the formed vitreous silica body within the reduction area of said flame to synthesize the high-purity transparent vitreous silica body.
