SBIR Phase I: Gradient-Index Optical Components

本工作是关于利用光学薄膜制作光学透镜。 这就是所谓的分级索引。 而不是改变形状， 在传统的透镜中，改变材料特性，使得 光的速度是改变的。 通过减慢中心的速度 圆柱形光波传输介质，光可以 聚焦，从而可以模拟透镜。 该梯度折射率光学 设计在这个国家并不流行。

This work is concerned with the fabrication of optical lens by using what is termed a graded index. Rather than vary the shape as with a conventional lens, the material properties are varied such that the speed of light is changed. By slowing down the speed in the center of a cylindrically shaped lightwave transmission medium, the light can be focussed and thus a lens can be simulated. This gradient index optical design has not been prevalent in this country.
