1. The document summarizes research on synthesizing an infrared transparent glass based on descriptions in an ancient Indian text called AMSHUBODHINI. Raw materials were mixed in ratios specified in the text and melted to produce a non-hygroscopic greenish-yellow calcium glass. 2. Characterization of the glass found it to be transparent in the infrared wavelength range of 5000 to 1200 cm-1, comparable to calcium fluoride glass. Unlike other infrared transparent materials which are hygroscopic, this glass was found to be non-hygroscopic. 3. The research successfully produced an infrared transparent glass from ancient text specifications. The glass has potential infrared applications and advantages over other materials due to its
