Abstract
Optical fibers with previously unattainable characteristics and the method of producing the same are disclosed and claimed herein. Specifically, the application discloses and claims a method to produce ZBLAN, Indium Fluoride, Germanate and Chalcogenide optical fibers and other similar optical fibers in a microgravity environment. The resulting optical fibers have unique molecular structures not attainable when optical fibers with the identical chemical composition are produced in a standard 1 gravity environment.
