Glass has a number of structural and practical advantages over crystalline materials, including excellent homogeneity, variety of form and size, and the potential for doping with a variety of dopant materials. Glasses with photonic properties have great potential and are expected to play a significant role in the next generation of multimedia systems. Fundamentals of glass materials are explained in the first chapter, and the book then proceeds to a discussion of gradient index glass, laser glasses, nonlinear optical glasses and magneto-optical glasses. Beginning with the basic theory, the book discusses actual problems, performance and applications of glasses. The book will be of value to graduate students, researchers and professional engineers working in materials science, chemistry and physics with an interest in photonics and glass with special properties. 606 $aGlass 606 $aPhotonics$xMaterials 615 0$aGlass. 615 0$aPhotonics$xMaterials. 676 $a621.36 700 $aYamane$b Masayuki$01055778 702 $aAsahara$b Yoshiyuki$f1940- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455881203321 996 $aGlasses for photonics$92489445 997 $aUNINA
