Laser-induced modification in the bulk of photochromic porous glass impregnated with silver halides

摘要

We presented the results of local modification of the optical properties in a bulk of photochromic plates of porous silicate glasses impregnated with silver halides, under the influence of pulsed fiber ytterbium laser. We have presented a research by optical methods of the modified areas which have an extended and the complex structure formed during laser irradiation. Such a microstructure in the amount of glass may be the basic elements of optical fiber systems for various applications.
