Abstract

Our research focused on the creation of lithium zinc borate glasses that were doped with Pr3+ ions. Specifically, our study focused on the effects of substituting lithium with Pr2O3. Our x-ray diffractometer analysis indicated that the glasses were amorphous, which was as expected. We have also evaluated the impact of adding Pr2O3 using toluene and xylene immersion liquids, and we found that these liquids had unique effects on the glass properties. Furthermore, we examined density changes using the Archimedes principle and estimated physical parameters. We carefully analysed the variations in NBO that were caused by Pr2O3, and our results provide valuable insights into the structural behaviour of these glasses.
