The earliest experimental data on an oxygen-free glass have been
published by Schulz-Sellack in 1870 [1]. Later on, in 1902, Wood
[2], as well as Meier in 1910 [3], carried out the first researches
on the optical properties of vitreous selenium. The interest in the
glasses that exhibit transparency in the infrared region of the
optical spectrum rose at the beginning of the twentieth century.
Firstly were investigated the heavy metal oxides and the
transparency limit was extended from (the case of the classical
oxide glasses) up to wavelength. In order to extend this limit
above the scientists tried the chemical compositions based on the
elements of the sixth group of the Periodic Table, the chalcogens:
sulphur, selenium and tellurium. The systematic research in the
field of glasses based on chalcogens, called chalcogenide glasses,
started at the middle of our century. In 1950 Frerichs [4]
investigated the glass and published the paper: "New optical
glasses transparent in infrared up to 12 . Several years later he
started the study of the selenium glass and prepared several binary
glasses with sulphur [5]. Glaze and co-workers [6] developed in
1957 the first method for the preparation of the glass at the
industrial scale, while Winter-Klein [7] published reports on
numerous chalcogenides prepared in the vitreous state.
