This work is concerned with the fabrication of optical lens by using            what is termed a graded index.  Rather than vary the shape as with a            conventional lens, the material properties are varied such that the             speed of light is changed.  By slowing down the speed in the center of          a cylindrically shaped lightwave transmission medium, the light can be          focussed and thus a lens can be simulated.  This gradient index optical         design has not been prevalent in this country.
