A bstract Series of glasses have been melted with TiO 2 or PbO as major constituents. To each member of the series, equal amounts of one of the following coloring ions have been added: Fe, Cu, U, Ce, and Mn. Complete spectrophotometric curves in the visible region have been obtained for the glasses. The color imparted by the ions to the glass is correlated with the position of the ion taken in the glass structure and conclusions are drawn showing that TiO 2 and PbO additions to glasses make it easier for the coloring ions to take part in the glass network.
