Fluorine-Doped Preform Plasma Processor from Japan
A plasma processor that dopes optical fiber preforms with fluorine using downstream microwave plasma to create depressed cladding index profiles in dispersion-shifted fibers. This process is critical for DWDM systems in telecommunications. The machine is used specifically for making optical fibre preforms, thus classified under tariff item 8475.21.00.
