In this paper, a new method is presented to measure the refractive index of single plain glass or multilayered materials, based on a laser frequency-shifted confocal feedback microscope. Combining the laser frequency-shifted feedback technique and the confocal effect, the method can attain high axial-positioning accuracy, stability and sensitivity. Measurements of different samples are given, including N-BK7 glass, Silica plain glass, and a microfluidic chip with four layers. The results for N-BK7 glass and Silica plain glass show that the measurement uncertainty in the refractive index is better than 0.001. Meanwhile, the feasibility of this method for multilayered materials is tested. Compared to conventional methods, this system is more compact and has less difficulty in sample processing, and thus is promising for applications in the area of refractive-index measurement.

ZnS doped borosilicate glass for nonlinear optical application was prepared by melting and precipitation process. The optical band gap of the precipitated ZnS particles ranged from 3.83 to 3.96 eV compared with the bulk ZnS energy gap of 3.53 eV. This result was interpreted in terms of a quantum confinement effect due to small crystal size. ZnS partilcle size estimated by effective mass approximation ranged from about 39 to 83 $\AA$ It increased wtih the increase of heat tratment time and temperature.

The temperature distribution inside a zigzag slab laser glass was measured using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The temperature difference between the center and the surface of the slab caused the fracture of the slab glass. Two laser glasses were fractured at a temperature difference ${\Delta}T_0$of TEX>$110^{\circ}C$, $62^{\circ}C$ respectively. For the design of high-average power glass laser, it is recommended that the limit of the temperature difference ${\Delta}T_0$ inside the slab glass should be smaller than $50^{\circ}C$ for safe operation.ration.

To investigate an effect of phase separation on precipitation characteristics of ZnS microcrystals in ma-trix glass ZnS doped borosilicate glasses for nonlinear optical applications were prepared by melting and pre-cipitation process. ZnS dopant contributed to phase separation promotion which increased the phase separa-tion of the matrix glass within immiscibility region. It was also found that ZnS as phase separation promoter showed a similar contribution for some selected glass compositions in miscibility region. The precipitation of ZnS microcrystals occurred in thephase separable glass compoitions. The radius of ZnS microcrystals in-creased with increasing the heat treatment temperature and Na2O contents of matrix glass composition. The ZnS particle sizes estimated by effective mass approximation ranged from about 30 to 80${\AA}$ It was suf-ficiently small to show quantum confinement effect.

This study aimed at identifying and optimizing the heating-condition parameters that cause surface defects during the compression molding of chalcogenide glass (GeSbSe) lenses through thermal analysis. We derived the optimal heating conditions for molding chalcogenide glass lenses through thermal analysis and analyzed the surface defects. As a result, we observed a significant reduction in surface defects, which verified the analysis process.

The method to make glass is tried first thing in domestic study for glasses lens. Tg of glass KzFSl was measured by DSC experiment and press method of glass of meniscus shape was studied for minimize the cost. Tg was increased $483^{\circ}C$ to $501^{\circ}C$ with increasing heating rate $2^{\circ}C/min$ to $20^{\circ}C/min$. It shows Arrhenius temperature dependence and the activation energy of Tg is ${\Delta}E$=409 kJ/mole(4.25eV) by using Ozawa method and Tg is near $480^{\circ}C$. The melt of KzFSl powder was poured to concave cast stainless and pressed convex cast stainless. The quenched glass was slow cooled with cooling rate $0.25^{\circ}C/min$ in temperature range $520{\sim}430^{\circ}C$. The glass was made without strain. It has meniscus shape and same size to commercial glasses lens.

In this paper we present an illumination model for rendering realistic stained glass. This techniques simulates the phenomenon of stained glass in real world by applying important optical component of the stained glass to the rendering algorithm. The optics for stained glass involves three basic physical mechanisms. First, diffuse light and highlight contribute to the brightness of stained glass which is typically white and changes along with the light source and the view position. Next, Fresnel refraction dominates the amount of refracted (transmitted) light. Finally, we express volume absorption occurs in all stained glass. Then, the rendered stained glass images achieve excellent realism.

We suggested the use of miniature hollow glass tubes having high ultraviolet (UV) transmission characteristics for the protection of optical-fiber-type UV sensors. We have recently proposed a highly sensitive optical sensor in the UV spectral range, using a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) coated with an azobenzene polymer as the photoresponsive material. In this study, we used UV-transparent miniature glass tubes to protect the etched FBG with the azobenzene polymer coating. This technique will be very useful for protecting various fiber-based UV sensors.

To study encapsulation method for large-area organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), red emitting OLEDs were fabricated, on which LiF and Al were deposited as inorganic protective films. And then the OLED was attached to flat glass by printing method using epoxy. In case of direct coating of epoxy onto OLED by printing method, luminance and current efficiency were remarkably decreased because of the damage to the OLED by epoxy. In case of depositing LiF and Al as inorganic protective films and then coating of epoxy onto OLED, luminance and current efficiency were not changed. OLED lifetime was more increased through inorganic protective films between OLED and flat glass than that without any encapsulation (8.8 h), i.e., 47 (LiF/Al/epoxy/glass), 62 (LiF/Al/LiF/epoxy/glass), and 84 h (LiF/Al/Al/epoxy/glass). The characteristics of OLED encapsulated with inorganic protective films (attached to flat glass) showed the possibility of application of protective films.
