<p>Self-assembling compounds capable of forming birefringent gels when added to an organic medium in an amount of about 0.05 % to about 2 % by weight are disclosed. A birefringent gel containing a self-assembling compound and an organic monomer can be polymerized to produce an optically birefringent polymer. The birefringent polymer can be melted to provide a birefringent melt that then can be formed into an article of manufacture, like an optical fiber.</p> |
