Abstract: A clad optical fiber having an air space between its core and cladding. The air space allows outgasing of the fiber core and cladding material during fabrication of the fiber and forms an internally reflective interface with the core for transmitting light through the fiber by total internal reflection.

Abstract: A LONG AND RELATIVELY THIN FIBER OPTICAL MULTIFIBER STRUCTURE IS FORMED TO A RHOMBOIDAL CROSS-SECTIONAL SHAPE SO AS TO ACHIEVE MAXIMUM PACKING DENSITY OF CONVOLUTIONS OF A SIMILARLY SHAPED FIBER DRAWN FROM THE STRUCTURE AND MACHINE WOUND ON A DRUM TO FORM A RIBBON OF SEVERAL FIBER WIDTHS FOR USE IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF FIBER OPTICAL IMAGE-CONDUCTING FIBERSCOPES AND THE LIKE. THE FIBER IS HELICALLY WOUND WITH ONE FLAT SIDE THEREOF AGAINST THE DRUM USING A LEAD NO GREATER THAN THAT OF THE WIDTH OF SAID ONE FLAT SIDE AND MOVING PARALLEL TO THE DRUM IN THE GENERAL DIRECTION OF SLOPE, TOWARD THE DRUM, OF ADJACENT SIDES OF THE FIBER. IT IS ALSO CONTEMPLATED THAT THE WINDING LEAD BE SLIGHTLY LESS THAN SAID WIDTH OF THE FIBER TO ASSURE MAXIMUM PACKING DENSITY. A PLURALITY OF RIBBONS ARE SUPERPOSED WITH THE OBLIQUE SIDES OF THE THOMBOIDAL MULTIFIBERS IN ALTERNATE RIBBONS BEING NONALIGNED.

Abstract: FIBERSCOPES FORMED OF A MULTIPLICITY OF ACCURATELY SUPERIMPOSED CIRCULAR FIBER RIBBONS. A PORTION OF THE LENGTH OF EACH RIBBON IS COATED IN ONE ZONE WITH A MATERIAL OF HIGH GLASS-BONDING STRENGTH AND WITH A STRIP OF AN ADHESIVE PARTING AGENT AT EACH SIDE OF THE HIGH STRENGTH BONDING MATERIAL. THE COATED PORTIONS ARE ACCURATELY SUPERIMPOSED AND CURED AT AN ELEVATED TEMPERATURE TO PRODUCE A HIGH STRENGTH BOND CENTRALLY OF THE COATED PORTIONS THROUGH WHICH A CUT IS MADE TO FORM OPPOSITE ENDS OF THE FIBERSCOPE. THESE ENDS ARE CUT, GROUND, SAWED OR CORE DRILLED PARTIALLY INTO ADJOINING AREAS OF THE ADHESIVE PARTING AGENT TO PROVIDE THE FIBERSCOPE WITH TIPS OF A DESIRED SHAPE AND SIZE WHEREUPON TRIMMING OF THE REMAINING LENGTH OF THE FIBERSCOPE TO A CORRESPONDING SHAPE AND SIZE IS AFFECTED BY DELAMINATION.

Abstract: Improving the light-transmitting efficiency of a clad lightconducting fiber by minimizing core-cladding interfacial defects. Elongated open channels extending longitudinally of the fiber are formed within the cladding to cushion the expansion of gases existing and/or created along the fiber core-cladding interface during fabrication of the fiber.

Abstract: Manufacturing semifinished and certain finished opthalmic lenses without surface grinding and polishing operation. A flat preform comprised of a thickness of a desired lens glass, e.g. ophthalmic crown, and a lesser thickness of a chemically soluble protective glass fused to at least one side of the lens glass with a smooth, blemish-free interface is produced and thence cut and pressed or slumped to the meniscus shape desired of the ophthalmic lens. The lens is completed by removing the protective glass with a suitable solvent to expose the underlying smooth, blemish free surface(s) of the lens glass for ophthalmic use without further working.
