    摘要: An athermal optical device and a method for producing the device, such as an athermal optical fiber reflective grating, are described. The athermal optical fiber reflective grating device comprises a negative expansion substrate, an optical fiber mounted on the substrate surface, and a grating defined in the optical fiber. The method for producing the athermal optical fiber reflective grating device comprises providing a negative expansion substrate, mounting an optical fiber with at least one reflective grating defined therein onto the substrate upper surface, and affixing the optical fiber to the substrate at at least two spaced apart locations.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a glass matrix which includes 4-70 wt.% SiO2, 0.5-20 wt.% Al2O3, 0-20 wt.% R2O, 0-30 wt.% R'O, 8-85 wt.% Ta2O5, 0-40 wt.% Nb2O5, and 0.01-1.0 wt.% R''2O3, where R2O + R'O is between about 2-35 wt.%, Ta2O5 + Nb2O5 is between about 8-85 wt.%, R is selected from a group consisting of Li, Na, K, and combinations thereof, R' is selected from a group consisting of Ba, Sr, Ca, Mg, Zn, Pb, and combinations thereof, and R'' is a rare earth element. The present invention also relates to use of the glass matrix in forming optic waveguides such as optic amplifiers. The present invention further relates to a transparent glass ceramic that contains pyrochlore, perovskite, or a combination thereof as its major crystal phase, and includes 4-40 wt.% SiO2, 1-15 wt.% Al2O3, 0-20 wt.% K2O, 0-12 wt.% Na2O, 0-5 wt.% Li2O, 8-85 wt.% Ta2O5, and 0-45 wt.% Nb2O5, wherein Ta2O5 + Nb2O5 is at least about 20 wt.% and (K2O + Li2O + Na2O) is between about 5-20 wt.%. Also disclosed is a method of making the glass ceramic and use of the glass ceramic as a ferro-electric component in electro-optical devices or as a filtering core in an optical filtering device.
