Abstract

Microgravity reduces crystallization of ZBLAN in microgravity which will make for a lower loss optical fiber. Relevant data from previous studies and further look at present studies concentrating on electrostatic levitation of ZBLAN which will help elucidate the mechanism for reduction of crystallization.
