Abstract:
A novel glass exhibits fluorescence from trivalent neodymium ions at a wavelength of approximately 1.06 micrometers. The glass consists essentially of about 98 weight percent of a host glass and about 2 weight percent Nd2(SO4)3. The host glass being either 90 mol percent ZnCl2 and 10 mol percent Na2SO4 or 60 mol percent ZnSO4 and 40 mol percent Rb2SO4.

Abstract:
Laser glass which has a low loss coefficient and is highly resistant to internal damage resulting from inclusions is produced in a ceramic crucible where the crucible and the associated ceramic stirrer are prepared such that the surfaces thereof are essentially free of reducing components.
Abstract:
Holographic method of recording and reconstructing a wavefront, from an array of light spots on a dark field, to propagate the reconstructed wavefront so as to illuminate the light spots to the exclusion of the dark field.
Abstract:
A DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING THE TRANSMISSION CHARACTERISTICS OF A STREAM OF LIGHT COMPRISING A MEANS FOR INTRODUCING A STREAM OF LIGHT TO BE CONTROLLED, A RARE EARTH DOPED HOST GLAS HAVING RARE EARTH IONS WHICH EXHIBIT EXCITED STATE ABSORPTION AT A WAVELENGTH CORRESPONDING TO THE WAVELENGTH OF THE STREAM OF LIGHT TO BE CONTROLLED
AND A MEANS FOR PUMPING THE IONS TO AN EXCITED STATE FOR CONTROL OF THE STREAM OF LIGHT BY ABSORPTION AS THE LIGHT IS TRANSMITTED THROUGH THE DEVICE.
Abstract:
A novel glass exhibits fluorescence from trivalent neodymium ions at a wavelength of approximately 1.06 micrometers. The glass consists essentially of about 98 weight percent of a host glass and about 2 weight percent of a compound which contributes trivalent neodymium ions to the glass. The host glass is a fluoroborate and consists essentially of 10 to 60 mol percent of B2O3 and 40 to 90 mol percent of a fluoride glass modifier selected from the group consisting of BaF2, LaF3, AlF3, PbF2, and combinations thereof. The neodymium compound is selected from the group consisting of Nd2O3and NdF3.
Abstract:
A novel glass exhibits fluorescence from trivalent neodymium ions at a wavelength of approximately 1.06 micrometers. The glass consists essentially of 98 to 99 weight percent of a host glass and 1 to 2 weight percent of a compound which contributes trivalent neodymium ions to the glass. The host glass consists essentially of 30 to 50 mol percent of Na2O.P2O5 and 50 to 70 mol percent of ZnCl2. The compound is selected from a group consisting of Nd2O3, NdF3, and NdCl3.
