Abstract

“Ideal” glasses for infrared imaging, wave guide and other applications should meet the following requirements:

  1. (1)

    high internal transmission in the near, mid and far Infrared (IR);

  2. (2)

    variability in refractive index and optical dispersion, depending on the glass composition;

  3. (3)

    high chemical, mechanical and thermal durability.
