<p>Method is disclosed for making glass having both polarizing and non-polarizing regions integral thereto by either ion-exchange or by exposure to light and heat. The polarizing regions of the resulting glass is effective in polarizing light radiation, that is, the glass exhibits permanent dichroic behavior and has at least some polarizing effect in the wavelength range of 400 to 700 nm. The base glass composition contains Cu, Ag and at least one halide such that the resulting precipitated crystal phase consists of a halide.</p> |
