ABSTRACT:
A process for the manufacture of a multi-layer polymer optical fiber having a graded optical refractive index profile. This fiber is comprised of an inner core layer, one or more intermediate layers and an outer clad layer, each layer being extruded from a polymer material. All layers are arranged in a concentric configuration, with the outer clad layer enclosing all other layers.
