Abstract
SnO-P2O5 glasses have high refractive index and low glass transition temperature but have poor water durability. To improve water durability, NbO2.5 was added to SnO-P2O5 glasses, preparing SnO-NbO2.5-P2O5 glass. It was found that addition of only 4 mol% NbO2.5 was enough to achieve significant improvement of water durability, and at the same time, no degradation in thermal and optical properties was observed.
