SYNTHESIS OF INORGANIC PHOTOTROPIC MATERIALS FOR HIGH DENSITY COMPUTER MEMORY APPLICATIONS.

Abstract

The report is a detailed description of the research performed to develop a transparent tenebrescent glass filter which would have potential as an optical memory for digital computers. A technique is described by which a nearly transparent hackmanite--type glass was prepared. The technique makes use of the precipitation of a tenebrescent phase from a glass matrix. Infrared absorption curves, analytical results and the effects of compositional variations are discussed. The development of a rare earth doped potassium glass is also described along with its optical properties and compositional variations. (Author)
