ABSTRACT:
Polarization-retaining optical fibres are manufactured according to the PCVD method, in which on the inside of a glass tube and, simultaneously on at least two glass rods which are arranged inside the glass tube such that their longitudinal axes run parallel to the longitudinal axis of the glass tube, glass is deposited in layers and the glass rods are removed from the glass tube upon completion of the glass deposition process. Alternatively, a single glass rod, the radial dimensions of which in two mutually perpendicular directions are in a ratio unequal to one, i.e. elliptical, is arranged in a glass tube such that its longitudinal axis coincides with the longitudinal axis of the glass tube.
