  • Abstract
    Improved purification and processing techniques have been utilized to fabricate Ge30As10Se30Te30 glass fibers with a minimum loss of O.11 dB/m at 6.6 μm. This is the lowest loss reported for any telluride glass fiber in the infrared region. Furthermore, the fibers exhibit less than 1 dB/m loss between 5.25 and 9.5 μm
