Abstract

Four quaternary yellowish and well transparent glasses were prepared. The structural arrangement of the glasses was examined by Raman scattering and no gross structural changes were found due to substitution of BaO by PbO. The glass transition of the glasses prepared was found in the region 300 °C (x = 0.2) to 343 °C (x = 0.05), the refractive index was found in the region 1.95 (x = 0.05) to 2.15 (x = 0.2) and the optical band gap was found in the region 3.58 eV (x = 0.2) to 3.75 eV (x = 0.05)..
