Article Preview

Abstract:

The glass samples in bismuth borate glass matrix containing Al2O3, with the composition of xAl2O3 : 30Bi2O3 : (70-x)B2O3 where x are Al2O3 concentration varying from 0.0, 2.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0 and 10.0 mol%, have been prepared. The obtained glasses were investigated some physical and optical properties. The results showed that the densities increased with increasing of Al2O3 concentration, whereas the molar volumes decreased. For the absorption spectra, no peak in the UV to NIR regions has been observed. Moreover the energy band gap and the refractive index for all samples have been calculated.
