Abstract
A laser (20) directs a laser beam at an optical fiber (12) and the resulting forward-scattered light is detected by a detector (21). The energy of the foward-scattered laser light is monotonically inversely proportional to the thickness of a carbon coating on the optical fiber. A computer (22) generates an electrical signal for controlling carbon coating thickness by driving a valve (24) to control the flow of acetylene from a source (14) used to coat the optical fiber in a coating chamber (13).
