摘要
Our laboratory recently has announced the formation of glasses based on the oxides of lead bismuth and gallium. These glasses are unusual in that they contain none of the traditional glass-forming caflons (eg. silicon boron germanium or phosphorous) yet exhibit a remarkable stability. In addition to this stability these compositions exhibit some rather unique properties such as the ability to transmit well into the infrared region (to about 8 microns) and a high nonresonant optical nonlinearity 3 (of 42 xlO 14 esu). To take advantage of this latter property for optical switching applications it is desirable to prepare the glass as an optical waveguide. Silica additions were made to a heavy metal oxide base glass in an effort to derive compositions suitable for core and cladding. The present paper describes the effects of these additions. 1.© (1990) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

我们的实验室最近宣布基于铅铋和镓的氧化物形成玻璃。这些玻璃是不寻常的,因为它们不包含任何传统的玻璃形成的咖啡因(例如硼硅锗或磷),但是显示出显着的稳定性除了这种稳定性之外,这些组合物表现出一些相当独特的性质,例如很好地透射到红外区域(到约8微米)和高非共振光学非线性3(42×10 14 esu)的能力。为了利用后者光学开关应用的性质,期望将玻璃制备为光波导。为了得到适合于芯和包层的组合物,对重金属氧化物基础玻璃进行了二氧化硅添加。本文描述了这些添加剂的作用1嘎 (1990)COPYRIGHT SPIE - 国际光学工程学会摘要的下载仅供个人使用
