Printing Chalcogenide Glass For Cheap Optical Components

Researchers from Université Laval in Canada have developed a method for 3D printing chalcogenide glass with a modified printer. While previous projects have managed to print various types of glass, the chalcogenide version has many desirable properties. These properties are especially useful for developing glass components and optical fibers for low-cost sensors, telecommunications components and biomedical […]
