Abstract
This cover picture, referring to article number 2000150 by Myungkoo Kang, Kathleen A. Richardson and co-workers, illustrates that multi-component Ge–As–Pb–Se chalcogenide glasses are capable of forming transparent optical glass ceramic nanocomposites with the potential for use as infrared gradient refractive index optical components. Through a simple gradient heat treatment protocol, the glass system is converted to a nanocomposite where the spatially varying volume fraction of nucleated nanocrystals defines the resulting nanocomposite's effective optical properties. This modification results in systematic variations in refractive index and Abbe number of the transmissive nanocomposites. These data are critical in that they provide the design input data required to engineer arbitrarily-shaped, single-component gradient refractive index lenses with minimum spectral aberration.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
