Abstract
The lead- and arsenic-free optical glass has a refractive index nd of 1.55≦nd≦1.64, an Abbe number νd of 42≦νd≦65, and a low transition temperature Tg≦460° C., good producibility and processability, and crystallization stability. The optical glass has a composition within the following range, in wt. % based on oxide content: The glass may also have a total content of SiO, BOand AlOthat is less than 9 wt. %. The glass may contain MgO, SrO, CaO and BaO, but the sum of these oxides is preferably at least 2 wt. % and at most 12 wt. %. The glass may contain at most 5 wt. % of each of LaO, TiO, NbO, at most 2 wt. % TaOand less than 1 wt. % fluorine.
