Description

Optical communication devices based on non-linear phenomena have been calling attention, according literature shows. Among the various materials studied, glasses are detached. It was found a co-relation between the refractive index and the non-linear optical coefficients; bigger linear refractive indexes will have more probability of application of vitreous matrix in the field of optical devices. Among the compositions which present these characteristics are the heavy metal glasses. (author)
