Abstract

Infrared optical fibers play a very important role in the advance using of lasers and chemical sensors in medicine. From various kinds of infrared optical fibers (crystalline, hollow) glassy optical fibers seem to have many advantages, namely in chemical and physical properties. In this paper the main attention is focused on chalcogenide (As_{24/S(subscript 3}, As₂Se₃, AsSeTe, GeSeTe) and chalcohalide glasses.
