Abstract
Many papers have been written on the design of gradient-index optical systems. The purpose of this paper is to review current technology in gradient-index materials research and to review the types of materials that are currently available. These include glass, materials made by ion exchange, chemical vapor deposition, sol-gel, and phase-separated techniques, gradient-index germanium, zinc-selenide/zinc sulfide, and gradients in plastics.
