The glass sample was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) to confirm an amorphous nature of glass. Obtained glass was characterized using ultraviolet-visible-near infrared (UV-vis-NIR) spectroscopy, which was used to determine percent transmission of the glass. The optical band gap of the grown glass has also been reported. Copyright@ International Science Community Association
