Glass and Ceramics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

The glass transition zone in the system PbCl2–PbF2–PbO–SiO2 was investigated; glasses, including those activated by neodymium, were obtained. The mechanical, optical, and spectral-luminescence properties of the glasses were investigated. It is shown that replacing fluorine with chlorine shifts the peaks of the luminescence and absorption lines to longer wavelengths.
