In the present study, a set of four glass samples with the composition of (50 − x)TeO2 − 10GeO2 − 20ZnO − 10Al2O3 − 10MgO − xCuO where x = 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 mol% has been investigated. This study explored the physical, mechanical, structural, and radiation shielding capabilities of glass samples. Als...
