る強固な湿潤ゲルが得られる。A feature of the present invention is that when producing silicate-based glass by the sol-gel method, the rare earth element alkoxide is pre-phosphorized in order to adjust the hydrolysis rate of the rare earth element alkoxide as a dopant and improve the solubility in the solvent. Peptize by reacting with an acid and partially hydrolyzing, uniformly dispersing colloidal particles produced by hydrolysis of rare earth alkoxide in a solvent, mixing this with phosphorus alkoxide and silicon alkoxide, reacting, and uniformly dispersing rare earth elements. This is the point where a multimer of silicon alkoxide containing elements and phosphorus is once produced. Then, by subjecting the mixture for producing silicate-based glass containing this polymer to hydrolysis and polycondensation reactions, a strong wet gel that is homogeneous and has relatively large pores with uniform particle size can be obtained.
