Optical nanocomposites for laser applications

An optical nanocomposite containing optically active crystals and suitable to be drawn into fiber form, dissolved into solution and subsequently deposited as a thin film, or used as a bulk optical component. This invention integrates compositional tailoring to enable matching of optical properties (index, dispersion, do/dT), specialized dispersion methods to ensure homogeneous physical dispersion of NCs within the glass matrix during preparation, while minimizing agglomeration and mismatch of coefficient of thermal expansion. By tailoring the base glass composition's viscosity versus temperature profile, the resulting bulk nanocomposite can be further formed to create an optical fiber, while maintaining physical dispersion of NCs, avoiding segregation of the NCs.

DOPED, LOW-TEMPERATURE CO-FIRED GLASS-CERAMIC (LTCC) INSULATING SUBSTRATES, AND RELATED WIRING BOARDS AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURE
20200385304 · 2020-12-10 ·

Doped, low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) insulating substrates and related wiring boards and methods of manufacture are disclosed. The doped, LTCC insulating substrate is formed from a baked (e.g., sintered) glass-ceramic aggregate material formed from a glass material, a ceramic filler material, and a composite oxide. The crystallized glass-ceramic aggregate is then doped with Iron and/or Manganese before baking. Iron or Manganese can further reduce dielectric loss and the loss tangent of the LTCC insulating substrate formed from that glass material. The glass material becomes crystallized due to an oxide crystal phase being deposited on the glass material during baking, which reduces the dielectric losses. This may be important for the application use as wiring boards for high radio-frequency (RF) electrical circuits where low dielectric loss and loss tangent is desired to achieve a desired signal transmission delay performance.
