    Abstract: A method of incorporating within a glass optical waveguide a material of interest having a property of interest that would be neutralized by exposure to molten glass includes combining pieces of a light-transmissive first glass with the material of interest. The combined first glass and material of interest are shaped within a container and heated to a temperature sufficiently high to cause the glass pieces and material of interest to mutually coalesce and form a light-transmissive core rod, but not high enough that the first glass melts and neutralizes the property of interest. A cladding tube is heated and fused about the core rod to define a mono rod. An optical waveguide through which light propagates by internal reflection, and which incorporates the material of interest, is defined when the cladding tube comprises a glass that renders the cladding of lower refractive index than the core rod.

    Abstract: A rod of etchable core glass material is inserted within a lead glass sleeve and heated in a furnace to drawing temperature and drawn from the furnace into a fiber. The lower end of the glass sleeve is collapsed around the core glass, thereby sealing the sleeve to the core rod. A vacuum is drawn on the space between the rod and the sleeve while in the furnace for outgassing the rod and sleeve and for eliminating gas tending to be trapped between the core fiber and its sleeve. In a subsequent step, a multitude of such glass fibers are assembled in a bundle, inserted within an evacuable glass sleeve, and heated to the softening point while drawing a vacuum on the bundle of fibers and the interior of the sleeve for further outgassing of the fibers. While the assembly is in the furnace, the exterior of the sleeve is pressurized to fuse the assembly of glass fibers together and to the sleeve to form a final boule which is subsequently transversely sliced to form plates which are etched to remove the core glass.

    Abstract: A radiation conducting conduit functions as an off-axis filter and contrast enhancer for an imaging device. A core of transparent glass has an axis aligned with the line of sight of the device. Cladding is provided which has the same index of refraction and co-efficient of thermal expansion as the core glass, except that a small percentage of the cladding glass is made of thin fibers or leaves of absorbing glass aligned substantially radially to the axis of the conduit and distributed randomly in the volume of the cladding. The interface between the core glass and the cladding glass of the same composition does not involve reflection or refraction, and non-axial light passes through the interface and is trapped among the absorbing black fibers. There, it is reflected and diminuated until it is totally absorbed. The conduit may be formed by the steps of: forming a flat sheet of glass containing random parallel fibers or leaves or absorbing glass, cutting the sheet into beveled strips, assembling the strips into a cylindrical configuration with the absorbing elements extending radially of the axis, inserting a core of transparent glass, and fusing the assembly and core together.
