Abstract: A method of making a transverse Anderson localization (TAL) element includes mixing pellets together to make a mixture, the pellets being of two or more distinct materials having respective wave speeds effective to provide Anderson guiding. The mixture is fused to make a preform which has respective pellet-size areas of the distinct materials corresponding to the pellets in the mixture. One or more stretching operations is performed to stretch the preform into the TAL element.

Abstract: A filament for use as a feedstock in three-dimensional printing of an optical device has a strand-like structure for continuous feeding into a printing nozzle of a three-dimensional printer. The strand-like structure includes one or more of elongated side-by-side core/cladding sections each having an optically transmissive inner core surrounded by a lower-index optically transmissive outer cladding for corresponding light guiding in the optical device. In embodiments, the core may be a solid material or an air core, and in the case of solid material may include scintillation material or other enhancements. Other variations and specifics are disclosed.

Abstract: A wave guide face plate for transmitting an image formed in a scintillating material included as part of a transmitting medium is disclosed. The transmitting medium includes a random distribution of different refractive index regions in two orthogonal dimensions, and an essentially consistent refractive index in a third orthogonal dimension. The third orthogonal direction is aligned with a transmission axis of the wave transmitter extending from an input location to a wave detector location. The transmission efficiency of the wave guide faceplate is improved in situations where the entry angle of the input radiation is different from the axis of the wave transmitter as compared to conventional faceplates.

Abstract: A method of making a waveguiding optical component includes processing a polymer optical material to form a billet having an axis of light transmission and having residual stress maintaining a transverse extent of the billet; placing the billet into a mold, the mold being configured to constrain transverse expansion of the billet according to a desired shape of the waveguiding optical component; and heating the billet in the mold to induce relaxation of the residual stress and corresponding transverse expansion of the billet, thereby forming the billet into the waveguiding optical component with the desired shape. An alternative method begins with a collection of individual canes or fiber segments which are fused during the heating process, bypassing a separate process of forming a billet.

Abstract translation: 公开了一种用于传输形成在作为传输介质的一部分的闪烁材料中形成的图像的波导面板。 发送介质包括两个正交尺寸的不同折射率区域的随机分布，以及在第三正交维度中基本一致的折射率。 第三正交方向与从输入位置延伸到波检测器位置的波发射器的透射轴对准。 与常规面板相比，输入辐射的入射角与波发射器的轴不同的情况下，波导面板的传输效率得到改善。
