The New Glass Research
Center was established in 1987 and has been focusing
on the development of the seeds of future products
and technology in anticipation of market needs
in the years to come. With original in-house technology
as a base, we plan to develop and expand our new
glass business. So the laboratory has been conducting
research in many fields, including photoelectric
glass, nano-glass, and inorganic coating materials.
From now we plan to envision and create glass
for the next generation, with the basic concept
of making environmentally friendly products. |

By irradiating various laser
beams to glass that includes rare-earth ions,
it is possible to deposit nano-sized crystals
in the glass. We have developed a material on
which nano-crystals can be deposited (data writing)
and from which only the up-conversion luminescence
of these crystals can be read (data reading). |

We developed glass material
of red, green, and blue luminescence exited infrared
laser. |
