Abstract

See full text

Provided is a method for producing a glass preform for optical fiber which suppresses occurrences of cracks, coloring and foaming in a surface layer when sintering a glass fine particle deposit to allow a production yield to be improved. A method for producing a glass preform for optical fiber comprising the steps of: spraying glass fine particles containing silicon dioxide and germanium dioxide to a starting material moving upward while rotating to produce a glass fine particle deposit; and sintering the glass fine particle deposit while relatively varying a positional relationship between a heating source and the glass fine particle deposit in a sintering apparatus to produce a transparent glass preform, wherein a germanium dioxide reducing gas is contained in an atmosphere gas in the sintering apparatus.
