Abstract
Specially formulated Gradient-Index polymeric optical materials offer capabilities not possible in present GRIN optics. A novel technology that enables large scale processing of nanolayered polymer films into real, performance-enhancing lenses for military Night-Vision-Goggle eyepieces is discussed.
