Glass soot samples were generated by both flame hydrolysis and oxidation of silicon and germanium tetrachlorides. The shrinkage of these samples during sintering was determined accurately by hot‐stage scanning electron microscopy. Shrinkage data were analyzed by an extension of Frenkel's theory of viscous sintering.
