ABSTRACT:
In the single polarization optical fiber of the present invention, an elliptical jacket is composed of SiO.sub.2 +P.sub.2 O.sub.5 +B.sub.2 O.sub.3, whereby increase in transmission loss at long wavelength band is prevented. In the process for fabricating single polarization optical fibers of the invention, a starting silica tube is subjected to pressure reduction with an amount of pressure reduction in response to concentration of dopants P.sub.2 O.sub.5 +B.sub.2 O.sub.3, whereby an ellipticity of the resulting elliptical jacket is made to be a pertinent value.
