Glass and Ceramics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Materials for the most widely used colored glasses are analyzed according to types of coloring and color centers. Selenium coloring of glass is examined in greater detail from the standpoint of the current understanding of the structure of pigments and the formation of color centers. A more precise classification of the types of coloring and color centers in glasses is presented.
