Abstract
Arguments are presented justifying the use of fluoride optical basicity values (e.g. λ ( BaF 2 ) = 0.50, λ ( SiF 4 ) = 0.21, λ ( ZrF 4 ) = 0.38) for calculating the optical basicity of all-fluoride and oxide/fluoride glasses. The resulting λ values agree with those obtained by probe ion spectroscopy, and provide a means for calculating trends in ideal optical basicity for glass systems such as BaF 2 ZrF 4 or AlF 3 Al(PO 3 ) 3 .Keywords
