Microwave assisted synthesis of chalcogenide glasses

Chalcogenide glasses have several potential uses for new photonic devices for two reasons: i) their infrared (IR) transparency and ii) viscous flow at the glass transition temperature (Tg). Because of the latter, these glasses can be drawn to optical fibre and polished glass discs can be patterned a...
