Abstract
The optical absorption of hydroxyl radicals in phosphorus-containing silica glass were measured both for fundamental and harmonic absorptions. It was shown that a larger part of the OH radicals are permanently trapped at phosphorus sites and are eliminated from contributing to optical losses in communication-type optical fibres.Keywords
