Abstract

New materials for fiber optics based on KBF₄-BPO₄-LiF and KBF₄-BPO₄ glasses are present. Transition of fluor-ion from BF₄ groups to phosphorous were investigated. New glasses have refractive index lower than 1.430. With these glasses construction of fiber tip was offered. This new tip has a mechanical resistance 2 - 3 larger than polymer analogs, is efficient at LNT and may collect a set of 500 W laser without being destroyed. Corrosion degree of SiO₂-glass on several fluor-containing melts was determined under some conditions. These melts appear corrosion activity as under as above the melt.
