摘要:
Solar resistant fused silica optical fiber (14) is made by heating the starter rod (10), drawing the fiber, and preferably immediately diffusing hydrogen by hydrogen absorption/diffusion chamber (16) into the fiber, then promptly covering the hydrogen diffused fiber with hermetic coating by hermetic coating reactor (20) to trap the hydrogen within the fiber. The presence of hydrogen in the fiber neutralizes UV radiation induced defects and because the hydrogen can only migrate through the fiber ends, the life of the solar resistant fiber for transmission wavelengths is increased by several years over conventional solar resistant fiber.

太阳能熔融石英光纤(14)通过加热起动杆(10),拉伸纤维,优选通过氢吸收/扩散室(16)将氢气立即扩散到纤维中,然后迅速地覆盖氢扩散纤维, 通过密封涂层反应器(20)进行气密涂层以将氢气捕获在纤维内。 纤维中氢的存在中和紫外线辐射诱发的缺陷,并且由于氢气只能通过纤维端部迁移,与传统的太阳能耐热纤维相比,用于传输波长的太阳能耐热纤维的寿命提高了几年。
