 | This report describes the fabrication of optical fiber that has an optically active material between the core and cladding. The materials used are CdTe, Cd3P3, and carbon. Processes are described for the deposition of these materials onto the glass rods used to form the fiber core. Also described is the collapsing process used to make the fiber perform. Absorption data for the fibers produced is given. ... |

 | This report describes a method of producing, and test results of, optical fibers having an optically active material at the core/cladding boundary. Two fibers were made and tested. The first has a thin AlCu alloy strip running the length of the fiber, the width of the strip covering approximately fifteen degrees of arc as seen looking at the fiber's cross section. The second has a thin ... |

 | During this reporting period we have learned a great deal about the process of fabricating fibers with optically active material stripes or cylinders located between the core and cladding. We have learned that in order for the optically active material layer covering the core rod to deform smoothly during the fiber fabricating process it is necessary for the glass to be very viscous while the optically active material layer must ... |

 | The objective of this effort was to fabricate fiber optic cable with optically active material at the core cladding interface. It was discovered that there are a large number of parameters that can be varied to fabricate exactly the device required for a particular application. Much of the effort on this task was used to acquire the proper glasses and alloys required to actually draw usable fibers. Although we were ... |

|
 | The objective of this effort was to fabricate and test Quantum Cylinder Fiber Light Amplifiers (QCyFLA). These devices are to be used for optical amplification. During the course of this effort, we were able to fabricate and test devices as planned. Test results were not the same as the theoretical predictions. New devices will be fabricated using a wide gap semiconductor against the glass. This should shift the absorption edge ... |

 | This document reports on the design and construction of a Molecular Beam Epitaxy system to grow and characterize aluminum/copper films, for electromigration studies. The growth of Al/Cu films in an evaporation system and reduction of the oxygen content of these films is discussed. Also, a novel approach to the modeling of electromigration in circuit metallization is presented. Aluminum, copper, metallization, electromigration |

 | This report discusses the growth of cadmium telluride films on indium antimonide substrates. Deposition is performed using a Closed Hot Wall Epitaxy (CHWE) system. Substrate and source temperatures are shown to have pronounced effects on the growth rate and microstructure of the CdTe film and also the microstructure of the substrate. Thin Films, Cadmium Telluride Films, Indium Antimonide, Hot Wall Epitaxy. |

 | One of the major advantages of optical systems is their ability to process a great deal of information in parallel. The optical system discussed here transmits a complete image through a single optical fiber. This transmission system preserves the three-dimensional and color information of the image. The resolution is limited by the number of modes that can propagate in the fiber. The image is inserted and retrieved from the fiber ... |
