Abstract

Mechanical properties of mixed AgCl_xBr_1-x (0≤x≤1) crystals and extruded polycrystalline optical fibers were investigated as a function of composition. The microhardness of as-grown crystals, annealed samples, and fiber-end faces show solid-solution hardening in agreement with the Kataoka-Yamada model [Jpn. J. Appl. Phys. 16, 1119 (1977)]. The fibers have a tensile strength of 50-90 MPa with similar solid-solution strengthening. The infrared transmission of 0.9-mm-diam fibers is not reduced significantly upon bending them 90°on a 3-mm radius. Such mixed-crystal-based silver-halide fibers are suitable for many infrared optical applications.
