Fluorescence and Moessbauer spectroscopy in conjunction with elemental analysis were used to verify that the fluorescence which develops in commercial porous glass, sintered under reducing condition, is due to Sn(II). The fluorescence shown by in-house-formulated porous high-silica glass impregnated with Sn(II)Cl2 and sintered under various conditions was used to substantiate this conclusions. Corrected fluorescence spectra for the Sn(II) species and isomer shifts and quadrupole splitting for various Sn species in glasses are also given.
