Abstract

In this work, effects of Ni2+ ions on soda lime silicate glasses have been investigated. Glasses were prepared in formula (65-x)SiO2 : 25Na2O : 10CaO: xNiO (where x is 0.00, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08 and 0.10 mol%). The densities of glasses not depend on Ni2+ concentration. The refractive indices decreased with increasing of NiO concentration. The optical absorption spectra were measured by uv-visible spectrophotometer and show peaks correspond with Ni2+ in glass matrices. Both of octahedral transitions and tetrahedral transition from Ni2+ ion were found around 450 and 625 nm respectively. The color of glasses were also measured in CIE L* a* b* system.
