Abstract
18642 With the development of new bright narrow line sources in the form of lasers (see Table I) and better detectors the classical concept of optical glass has been expanded to include new glasses for applications in the ultraviolet and the infrared spectral regions. I would like to review briefly some recent developments in the spectral range from far UV to the end of the atmospheric window at 12 2 .
