The current study is intended to examine the optical, structural and photon/neutron shielding qualities of a group of different ZrO₂ content doped 60B₂O₃ +20Bi₂O₃+(20-x)Li₂O + xZrO₂ glasses, labeled as BBLZ1, BBLZ2, BBLZ3, BBLZ4 and BBLZ5 manufactured via the melt quenching technique. The specific gravity of the glasses was boosted with increasing ZrO₂ additive and molar volume exhibited the opposite trend versus the density. XRD patterns were obtained to reveal the amorphous structure of the glasses. Spectra of optical absorption for BBLZ glasses were recorded in the wavelength region 200–1100 nm. The direct band gap (E_g) values dropped from 4.24 to 3.87 eV with the boosting ZrO₂ content while the indirect E_gs declined from 3.78 to 3.18 eV. The refractive index grew as the ZrO₂ substitution ratio enhanced. To determine photon shielding parameters of BBLZ glasses, the mass attenuation coefficients (MAC) were gained viz Py-MLBUF online program for the 0.015–15 MeV gamma ray energies. Several shielding parameters of BBLZ glasses such as Half Value Layer (HVL), Exposure Buildup Factor (EBF) and Mean Free Path (MFP) were reached using MAC values. The highest MACs differ from 68.188 cm²/g to 0.036 cm²/g for BBLZ5 glass while the lowest μ/ρ values varying from 69.413 cm²/g to 0.036 cm²/g belong to the BBLZ1 glass. The thinnest MFP and HVL values were observed in the BBLZ5 glass with the highest ZrO₂ contribution (4 mol %). Adding ZrO₂ to the fabricated glasses reduced photon buildup. BBLZ5 glass was determined to be the safest neutron shield due to its high density. It can be concluded that ZrO₂ addition with increasing rates to lithium bismo-borate glasses reinforced both optical properties and nuclear radiation security qualities.

当前的研究旨在检查一组掺杂了不同ZrO ₂含量的60B ₂ O ₃ + 20Bi ₂ O ₃ +（20-x）Li ₂ O + xZrO ₂玻璃的光学，结构和光子/中子屏蔽质量，已标记如通过熔融淬火技术制造的BBLZ1，BBLZ2，BBLZ3，BBLZ4和BBLZ5。随着ZrO ₂添加剂的增加，玻璃的比重得以提高，摩尔体积相对密度呈现出相反的趋势。获得XRD图案以揭示玻璃的无定形结构。BBLZ玻璃的光吸收光谱记录在200-1100 nm的波长范围内。直接带隙（E_g）值随着ZrO ₂含量的增加从4.24 eV下降到3.87 eV，而间接E _g s从3.78 eV下降到3.18 eV。折射率随着ZrO ₂取代率的增加而增加。为了确定BBLZ玻璃的光子屏蔽参数，通过Py-MLBUF在线程序获得了0.015–15 MeV伽马射线能量的质量衰减系数（MAC）。使用MAC值可以达到BBLZ眼镜的一些屏蔽参数，例如半值层（HVL），曝光累积因子（EBF）和平均自由程（MFP）。BBLZ5玻璃的最高MACs从68.188 cm ² / g到0.036 cm ² / g，而最低的μ/ρ值从69.413 cm ² / g到0.036 cm² / g属于BBLZ1玻璃。在具有最高ZrO ₂贡献（4摩尔％）的BBLZ5玻璃中观察到最薄的MFP和HVL值。将ZrO ₂添加到制成的玻璃中可以减少光子积累。BBLZ5玻璃由于其高密度而被确定为最安全的中子屏蔽。可以得出结论，随着ZrO _2的添加速率增加，双双硼酸锂玻璃增强了光学性能和核辐射安全性。
