Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus for fabricating an optical fiber preform through an external vapor deposition process. The apparatus includes a lathe on which a primary preform is rotatably mounted by chucks, a burner assembly including a burner installation block having an inclined surface and a plurality of burners installed on the inclined surface of the burner installation block in such a manner that the burners spray flames and source gas towards the primary preform with mutually different spraying angles, and a carrier unit for moving the burner assembly lengthwise along the primary preform.
