Abstract
A sol-gel method of preparing doped glass articles is provided. The glass is formed by preparing a sol solution containing hydrolyzed silicon alkoxide and ultrafine particle silica. The sol solution can also include a dopant. The sol solution is gelled in a container, dried and sintered to yield the doped silica glass articles.
