Phosphate glasses possess a notable advantage in accommodating high levels of transition metal ions, making them an attractive choice for various applications. In this work, one of the transition metals, like chromium, is doped with lithium zinc phosphate glasses to understand their structural, optical, and physical properties. The glassy nature of the glass matrices was analysed using XRD spectra. The prepared samples’ density is determined, Archimedes’ principle was used, and the calculation of the molar volume values complements the density values. UV–Visible spectra provide absorption spectra that elucidate the energy gap values of the samples. Refractive index values were determined using a suitable formula. FT-IR spectra explain the structural bonds of the prepared glass samples. Emission spectra analysis was done using the obtained photoluminescence spectra, CCT values, and CIE diagram, which resulted in the potential application of display devices.
