Abstract

This paper investigates the optical transmission properties of m-B₂O₃ (m = CuO, Al₂O₃, ZnO) glasses with respect to different annealling temperatures. It is motivated by the fact that borate glasses are commonly used as optical filters due to their low refractive index and low optical dispersion characteristics. The addition of impurities in glasses alter their reflectance and transmittivity at certain wavelengths. They could therefore be used as wavelength-selective optical components.
