Interesting stuff.  When I saw Corning I thought glass fiber (optical pulse signals delay line) but their development of optical fiber came later, I think.

That Corning document is also interesting because of its comparison of memory technologies it shows.  Tunnel diode memories?  Hm.  And cryogenic, in 1962?  Hm again.
