Ultraviolet transmission characteristics of LG‐810 fluorophosphate laser glass were investigated as a means of diagnosing transition metal contamination. Absorption bands normally exhibited by this glass were shown to derive primarily from metallic impurities. Uv‐transparent glasses were produced having absorption cut‐offs close to those reported for BeF 2 ‐based glasses.
