ABSTRACT:
A process for producing a preform for elastic optical fiber having a refractive index distribution in which the refractive index is gradually decreased from the center of the preform toward the outer periphery thereof, by depositing a deposition layer comprising a polymer A (refractive index: N.sub.a) and a refractive index modifier having a refractive index different from that of the polymer A onto an inner surface of a hollow cylindrical member rotating about an axis thereof, by use of vapor-phase deposition based on a CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) process, or a coating process. A plastic optical fiber preform comprising deposition layers having a gradually increasing refractive index distribution is formed by changing the mixing ratio between the polymer A and the refractive index modifier constituting the deposition layer.
