Abstract
A dispersion control fiber and a method of manufacturing a large size preform. The dispersion control fiber includes a core composed of SiO2, GeO2, and P2O5, and a cladding composed of SiO2, GeO2, P2O5, and Freon. The P2O5 content is selected not to exceed 10% total weight of a compound composing the core. The method of manufacturing a large size perform for a dispersion control fiber by an MCVD process includes depositing SiO2, GeO2, P2O5, and Freon in an inner periphery of a deposition tube to form a cladding layer, and depositing SiO2, GeO2, and P2O5 on an inner periphery of the cladding layer to form a core layer.
