Abstract
A method is disclosed for fabricating an optical fiber by drawing a preform whose manufacture involves the deposition of a borosilicate layer. The method calls for borosilicate deposition by high temperature pyrolysis of two gases, with processing parameters chosen so as to cause an acicular structure in the deposited layer, a structure which contributes to the uniformity of the drawn fiber.
