Investigation on Physical and Optical Properties of Vanadium Oxide in Soda Lime Borate Glasses

Abstract:

In this work, the physical and optical properties of soda-lime-borate glasses doped with V₂O₅ concentration of 0.0 to 2.5 in mol% have been investigated. The glass samples were prepared by the normal melt-quench technique. The results show that the density and refractive index decreased with additional 0.5 mol% content of V₂O₅. Then both results increased with increasing V₂O₅ content from 1.0-2.5 mol%. The optical absorption spectra of glass samples were measured by UV-visible spectrophotometer in the wavelength range 300-1100 nm and color coordinate in CIEL*a*b* system. The absorption peaks locate around 605 and 960 nm for all V₂O₅ concentration that are associated to V⁴⁺ ions and produce the brown color.
