Abstract

The lead halo borate glasses with composition xPbBr2 - (30−x)PbO - 68B2O3- 2V2O5 (where 5 ≤ x ≤ 25 mol%) were prepared by using melt quenching technique. Physical and optical properties were investigated with increasing PbBr2 content. Using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), amorphous nature of glass samples is confirmed. Archimedes principle is used to determine the density of the glass samples. When oxygen ions are replaced by bromine ions the density is found to decrease. The ionic radii of bromide ions played an important role in explaining the physical properties like density and molar volume. Optical band gap and Urbach energy values were evaluated from optical absorption spectra. Using these values refractive index, molar refraction and molar electronic polarisability were determined. FTIR analysis was employed to explore the impact of lead bromide on the structure of lead borate glasses.
