  • Patent number: 7371703
    Abstract: An optical glass wherein an amount of change in refractive index (?n: difference in refractive index between a state before radiation and a state after radiation) caused by radiation of laser beam at wavelength of 351 nm having average output power of 0.43 W, pulse repetition rate of 5 kHz and pulse width of 400 ns for one hour is 5 ppm or below is provided. The optical glass comprises a fluorine ingredient and/or a titanium oxide ingredient and/or an arsenic oxide ingredient. The optical glass suffers little change in refractive index by radiation of strong light having wavelengths of 300 nm to 400 nm such as ultraviolet laser.
    Type: Grant
