Abstract
The polarized Raman spectra of rare‐earth fluoride glasses based on BaF2 and ThF4, in combination with ZnF2, YF3, YbF3, LuF3, andlor AlF3, are reported and compared with those of other heavy‐metal fluoride glasses. The spectra of rare‐earth fluoride glasses, especially those containing large amounts of AlF3, have relatively broad and mostly depolarized features, suggesting that these glasses are more highly disordered than fluorozirconate and transition‐metal fluoride glasses.
