ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method for manufacture of a quartz glass preform for an optical fibre consisting of the following steps: preparation of a hollow cylinder made of porous quartz glass which exhibits an inner layer with a doping substance which increases the refractive index of quartz glass and an outer layer surrounding the inner layer, with a lower refractive index, and collapse of the hollow cylinder characterised by collapse of the porous hollow cylinder onto a quartz glass rod containing the doping substance.
