Abstract
A method of manufacturing a hollow core optical fiber, the method including positioning at least one glass tube in a glass outer cladding to form a preform precursor, the glass tube comprising a first open end and a second open end, and forming a preform from the preform precursor. The method further including drawing the preform into a hollow core optical fiber and, while drawing the preform, thermally treating the preform to manipulate gas pressure within the glass tube by at least one of (i) heating at least a portion of the preform to increase gas pressure within the glass tube and (ii) cooling at least a portion of the preform to decrease gas pressure within the glass tube.
