Abstract
Recent, often exciting, applications of glass science include solid state batteries, electronic switches and memories, electrophotography, solar cells, microspheres for optical strengthening and medical uses, novel glass ceramics such as machinable and bioactive materials, solder glasses, composites, sol-gel glasses, gradient index optics, communication fibers, sensors, non-linear and active optics, and, perhaps, digital optics. The large field of special coatings is not covered in this review. © 1990.
