Abstract
New glass compositions have been investigated with the substitution of
barium by K, Rb, Cs, Cd or Pb in ZBLA glass: 57ZrF(4)-34BaF(2)-5LaF(3
)-4AlF(3). Characteristic temperatures, density, refractive index, the
rmal expansion coefficient and microhardness are reported. The correla
tion between property values and composition is discussed by reference
to chemical bonding and structure. The data may be useful for the des
ign of special optical fibers.
