  • Process for producing an optical fluorophosphate glass having anomalous positive partial dispersion
    Patent number: 4941907
    Abstract: Optical fluorophosphate glass which is based on Mg(PO.sub.3).sub.2, Ca(PO.sub.3).sub.2, Ba(PO.sub.3).sub.2, Al(PO.sub.3).sub.3, MgF.sub.2, CaF.sub.2, SrF.sub.2, AlF.sub.3, BaO and SrO and has a refractive index n.sub.e between 1.515 and 1.546, an Abbe value .nu..sub.e between 75.8 and 77.4 and a positive anomalous partial dispersion value .DELTA..nu..sub.e between 14.85 and 15.15.The glass comprises (in weight-%) 2.4-2.7 Mg; 4.5-4.9 Ca; 15.9-17.6 Sr; 20.2-22.3 Ba; 5.6-6.2 Al; 8.8-9.7 P; 22.0-24.3 F and 15.7-17.4 O. The improved physico-chemical parameters, such as linear expansion coefficient, glass transition temperature T.sub.g, density .zeta., Knoop-hardness HK, etc., are stated. Finally, a production process for this optical glass is described.
