Structural, optical, and gamma radiation safety properties of 46V 2 O 5 ·46P 2 O 5 ·(8– x )B 2 O 3 · x ZnO ( x  = 0,2,4,6, and 8 mol%) abbreviated as VPB/Zn glasses were investigated. The structure of the synthesized glasses has been examined via FTIR spectra within the range of 400–1500 cm −1 at ro...
