Glass structure and ion exchange

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

Measurable degradation in the image quality of radial and spherical gradient lenses can be caused by what might seem to be excruciatingly small perturbations from ideal gradient-index profiles. These are controlled by a number of empirically determined fabrication parameters that include glass composition, salt melt composition, thermal history, applied electric field and multiple diffusion steps.
