  • Abstract
    Multicomponent glass is suited for the preparation of high numerical aperture (n.a.) fibres which may be used in short-distance applications. Low loss of 20dB/km fibres have been produced with a n.a. of 0.53. Core glass having high refractive index has been prepared by using the additives of BaO and GeO2 which are hardly harmful to the intrinsic absorption loss.
