The Effect of Chemical Composition on the Refractive Index and Abbe Value of Ternary Silicate Glass Systems
JSGT 1945 V29 T428-T433
A general procedure (based on previously published equations and constants) is outlined for the production of a chart showing the relationship between refractive index, Abbe value and composition, of ternary silicate glass systems. As an example, such a chart is presented for the Na2O–CaO–SiO2 system.
