Abstract

Experimental results showing that peroxy linkage, a form of excess oxygen, gives rise to an optical absorption band at 325 nm are presented. Moreover, understanding the nature of excess oxygen is important for fibers used in optical communication because excess oxygen is the cause of the 1.52-μm absorption band. The characteristics of the three principal fibers and a specially synthesized SA4 fiber used in the experiment are shown and discussed.
