ABSTRACT:
Graded index plastic optical materials, including preforms and fibers produced therefrom, are described. Methods for producing the optical materials using dopants in the sheathing of the material are also described. The graded index plastic optical materials have excellent optical characteristics, enhanced flexibility and good environmental stability.
