Novel Glass & Fibre

What is a Chalcogenide?

From Greek sulphur-loving for elements that frequently bond to sulphur.

Eli Yablonovitch, University of California writes:

"Chalcogenide glasses… These amazingly flexible materials are perpetually underestimated in terms of their practical potential."
