  • Light fibers made from components of a type II eutectic system
    Patent number: 4345177
    Abstract: A directionally solidified, optically conductive eutectic system and method of forming the same. A Type II eutectic which divides into fiber and matrix phases when directionally solidified consists of a fiber phase having a lesser molecular weight but higher refractive index than the matrix phase. The resulting fiber array is optically conductive, and may be used to advantage in applications such as CRT screens, waveguides, fiber optic image intensifiers, and lasers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 17, 1980
    Date of Patent: August 17, 1982
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: James D. Parsons, Alfred S. Yue
