Popis: Lead borate glasses were prepared and then heat treated in order to obtain transparent glass-ceramics. Controlled crystallization of precursor lead borate glass at appropriate annealing temperature and time led to formation of the PbWO 4 crystallites. The observed broad blue emission band is related to the PbWO 4 crystallites. The influence of PbX 2 content (X=F, Cl, Br), PbF 2 concentration and lanthanide doping (Eu, Dy) on the excitation and emission spectra of lead borate glass-ceramics containing PbWO 4 phase was examined. The relationship between Pb–X bond and spectral line width of the blue emission can be successfully observed, when halogen X ions (X=F, Cl or Br) are also present in the distorted PbWO 4 crystallites.
