Corning Incorporated (NYSE:GLW) will receive R&D Magazine�s
respected 2008 R&D 100 Award for its innovative ClearCurve�
optical fiber at a ceremony this evening in Chicago, Ill. The award
recognizes the 100 most technologically significant new products of
the year. This is the sixth industry award that Corning ClearCurve
fiber has received since its introduction in 2007. Corning has
previously won this award for technologies such as LEAF� optical
fiber, MetroCor� optical fiber and Polarcor� polarizing glass. �We
are honored to have ClearCurve fiber recognized in the industry as
one of the most technologically significant products of the year,�
said Martin J. Curran, senior vice president and general manager,
Corning Optical Fiber. �In the development of ClearCurve fiber, we
had our customers� needs in mind. The main objective was to
manufacture a fiber with vastly improved macrobend performance to
allow carriers to design optical fiber into much more challenging
installation environments. We believe this fiber technology will
continue to open new application spaces to the bandwidth benefits
of optical fiber.� The ClearCurve fiber solution is hundreds of
times more bendable than standard single-mode fiber. Featuring
Corning's breakthrough nanoStructuresTM technology, ClearCurve
optical fiber can be bent around very tight corners with virtually
no signal loss while maintaining backward compatibility with the
installed base of optical fiber. This fiber enables the
construction of rugged drop cables for multi-dwelling unit
installation that can be handled in the same way that copper
communication cables are handled, such as pulling through wall
studs and stapling to wood. For detailed Corning product
