201 | Optical members and blanks or synthetic silica glass and method for their production | US535205 | 1990-06-08 | US5086352A | 1992-02-04 | Shigeru Yamagata; Kyoichi Inaki; Toshikatu Matsuya; Ralf Takke; Stephan Thomas; Heinz Fabian |
The invention relates to lenses, prisms or other optical members which are subjected to high-power ultraviolet light having a wavelength of about 360 nm or less, or ionizing radiation, particularly optical members for use in laser exposure apparatus for lithography, and to blanks for such optical members. The homogeneity of the refractive index distribution and the resistance to optical deterioration when the optical members are exposed for a long period of time to short wavelength ultraviolet light from a laser beam are improved. The optical members are made of high-purity synthetic silica glass material containing at least about 50 wt. ppm of OH groups, and are doped with hydrogen. The refractive index distribution caused by the fictive temperature distribution during heat treatment in the process of producing high-purity silica glass blanks for optical members in accordance with the present invention is offset by the combined refractive index distribution determined by the OH group concentration distribution or by the OH group concentration distribution and the Cl concentration distribution in the glass. | ||||||

A granular body, from which an article having a nonuniform refractive index may be formed, has grains of two substances which have different refractive indicies in a geometric distribution in the granular body corresponding to the geometric distribution of the substances required for the nonuniform refractive index of the article and a way of shape-stabilizing the granular body. A method of making the granular body comprises controllably feeding the grains into the geometric distribution in the granular body and shape-stabilizing it. Preferably the granular body is compressed into a porous compact which holds itself together and is treated with a gas to achieve desired optic properties in the article. | ||||||

In a method for the production of cylindrically symmetric bodies with given radial gradient of the material properties, for example of the refractive index, at least two rod-shaped molded bodies consisting of materials with different properties are joined in parallel and, following lowering of the viscosity of both materials, the bodies are twisted many times in a spiral around a longitudinal axis, such that a desired radial gradient of the material properties arises, where metallic, semiconducting, or insulating materials may be used, and the viscosity is varied through changing the temperature or adding or removing a solvent. | ||||||
204 | Heat treatment of flat photochromic sheet glass | US80903 | 1987-08-03 | US4786305A | 1988-11-22 | Edith M. Ball; Patricia A. Drake; David J. Kerko |
This invention is directed to a method for heat treating a sheet of a potentially photochromic glass to cause the growth of silver halide crystals therein which impart photochromic properties thereto, wherein the heat treated sheet will be essentially free from thermal deformation and surface defects, and the photochromic properties exhibited therein will be essentially uniform across the area of the sheet. The method involves first placing a sheet of potentially photochromic glass on top of a sheet of carrier glass that exhibits a softening point at least 50.degree. C. higher than the temperature at which the potentially photochromic glass will be heat treated, and thereafter subjecting the stacked sheets to the heat treatment temperature desired for growing silver halide crystals in the glass. | ||||||

208 | Fabrication of optical waveguides | US540920 | 1975-01-13 | US4111520A | 1978-09-05 | Enrique Bernal G. |
Optical waveguides are fabricated by heating a region of a body of optical material with an energy beam. The region is locally heated to a temperature at which plastic deformation occurs as a result of the constraints placed by the unheated adjacent material. The plastic strain produced at high temperature translates into a residual stress as the material cools which results in a greater index of refraction within the region than in surrounding regions. | ||||||

210 | Method of producing glass for optical waveguides | US3791714D | 1972-03-30 | US3791714A | 1974-02-12 | MAURER R |
Deuterium is used instead of hydrogen in a process for producing glass having low hydroxyl ion content. In a flame hydrolysis process deuterium gas, or a deuterium compound gas, is passed through a liquid containing a silicon compound such as silicon tetrachloride. The resulting vapor is burned to deposit a film of silicon dioxide on a rotating mandrel. Glass produced in this manner is particularly suitable for use as optical waveguides. The hydroxyl ion normally present in glass produced in the presence of hydrogen is replaced by the deuterium containing ion OD . Absorption peaks normally caused by the presence of the hydroxyl ions are shifted to longer wavelengths at which the absorptions are not troublesome when the waveguide is used to transmit light in the band of approximately 7,000A.
