Eu 2 O 3 ‐doped aluminoborosilicate glasses were prepared in air at high temperature. Luminescence measurements were used to investigate a valence change from Eu 3+ to Eu 2+ ions in the aluminoborosilicate glasses. The results showed that the doped Eu 3+ ions were partially reduced to Eu 2+ in the Eu 2 O 3 :RO–Al 2 O…
