Thermoluminescence of B2O3-Li2O glass system doped with MgO

Lithium borate (LiB) glasses in the system (100−x)B₂O₃-xLi₂O with x=20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 mol% were prepared. The glasses were doped with different concentrations of the order of 10⁻¹, 10⁻², 10⁻³, 10⁻⁴ and 10⁻⁵ of MgO and their thermoluminescent (TL) response was investigated. The irradiations were performed using γ rays from a ⁶⁰Co source in the dose range from 0.1 to 25 kGy. The material displayed good sensitivity for γ-rays and intensity of TL signals is dependent on γ-ray dose and Li₂O content. For each dose level and investigated temperature range (50-350 °C), exactly single isolated glow peak appears in the temperature range of 165-205 °C depending on both Li₂O concentrations and time of exposure. The shape of the glow peak has altered significantly with increase in the gamma ray dose or Li₂O concentrations. The glass composition with x=50 mol% doped with 10⁻³ mol% of MgO presented the best TL response. The results of the present study indicated that the recorded single and isolated high temperature peak is a good candidate for TL dosimetric investigations. This indicates that 50 B₂O₃-50Li₂O-doped with 10⁻³ mol% of MgO is possibly used as materials for radiation dosimetry in the dose range of 0.1-20 kGy.     

EPR and magnetic susceptibility studies of iron ions in ZnO-Fe2O3-SiO2-CaO-P2O5-Na2O glasses

Room temperature electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra and temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility data have been obtained on bulk x(ZnO,Fe₂O₃)(65−x)SiO₂20(CaO, P₂O₅)15Na₂O (6≤x≤21 mole%) glasses prepared by melt quenching method. EPR spectra of the glasses revealed absorptions centered at g≈2.1 and 4.3. The variations of the intensity and line width of these absorption lines with composition have been interpreted in terms of the variation in the concentration of the Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ ions in the glass and the interaction between the iron ions. EPR and magnetic susceptibility data of the glasses reveal that both Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ ions are present in the glasses, with their relative concentration being dependent on the glass composition. The studies reveal superexchange type interactions in these glasses, which are strongly dependent on their iron content.     

Influence of lithium phosphate concentration and temperature on the electrical conduction of (76V2O5-24P2O5)1−X (Li3PO4)X glasses

Characterization of the (76V₂O₅-24P₂O₅)_1−X (Li₃PO₅)_X, where X=0.0,0.01,0.02,0.10 and 0.15, glass has been done using X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The dc conductivity of the glass samples was studied over a temperature range from 300 to 593 K. The temperature dependence of dc conductivity shows two regions. One at relatively high temperature range, above θ_D/2, and the other at relatively low temperature range, below θ_D/2. The I-V characteristics of the glasses have been studied as a function of both temperature and Li₃PO₄ content. The I-V characteristics exhibits threshold switching with differential negative resistance. It's found that both the threshold voltage (V_th) and threshold current (I_th) are dependent on the temperature and lithium phosphate concentration.     

Preparation of amorphous films of superionic conducting glasses in systems AgIAg2MoO4 and AgIAg2OB2O3

Thermal evaporation, flash evaporation and rf-sputtering techniques were applied to the preparation of amorphous films of superionic conducting glasses in the systems AgIAg₂MoO₄ and AgIAg₂OB₂O₃. The flash-evaporated films were amorphous and showed very high conductivities, about 2 × 10^?2S/cm for the AgIAg₂MoO₄ and about 5 × 10^?3S/cm for the AgIAg₂OB₂O₃ at room temperature, and gave a Ag⁺ transport number of unity. The thermal evaporation method produced crystalline-phase included films. The rf-sputtered films were amorphous by X-ray diffraction and the transport number of Ag⁺ ions was smaller than unity (about 0.9). Thus flash evaporation was concluded to be the most suitable method for preparing amorphous films of superionic conducting glasses.     

Study of molybdenum coordination state and crystallization behavior in MoO3-La2O3-B2O3 glasses by Raman spectroscopy

The ternary MoO₃-La₂O₃-B₂O₃ glasses containing a large amount of MoO₃ (10-50 mol%) are prepared, and their structure and crystallization behavior are examined from the Raman scattering spectrum measurements and X-ray diffraction analyses. It is found that the glass transition and crystallization temperatures and the thermal stability against crystallization decrease with increasing MoO₃ content. It is suggested that the main coordination state of Mo⁶⁺ ions in the glasses is isolated (MoO₄)²⁻ tetrahedral units giving strong Raman bands at 830-860 and 930 cm⁻¹. It is found that the crystalline phases in the crystallized glasses are mainly LaMoBO₆ and LaB₃O₆, and the main crystallization mechanism in MoO₃-La₂O₃-B₂O₃ glasses is surface crystallization. LaMoBO₆ crystals are found to give strong Raman bands at 810-830 and ∼910 cm⁻¹.

Characterization and electrical properties of V2O5-CuO-P2O5 glasses

Characterization and electrical properties of vanadium-copper-phosphate glasses of compositions xV₂O₅-(40−x)CuO-60P₂O₅ have been reported. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirms the amorphous nature of these glasses. It was observed that, the density (d) decreases gradually while the molar volume (V_m) increases with the increase of the vanadium oxide content in such glasses. This may be due to the effect of the polarizing power strength, PPS, which is a measure of ratio of the cation valance to its diameter. The dc conductivity increases while the activation energy decreases with the increase of the V₂O₅ content. The dc conductivity in the present glasses is electronic and depends strongly upon the average distance, R, between the vanadium ions. Analysis of the electrical properties has been made in the light of small polaron hopping model. The parameters obtained from the fits of the experimental data to this model are reasonable and consistent with glass composition. The conduction is attributed to non-adiabatic hopping of small polaron.     

Effect of high electric field on the dc conduction of TeO2-V2O5-MoO3 amorphous bulk material

Effect of high electric field on the dc conductivity of TeO₂-V₂O₅-MoO₃ amorphous bulk samples with different molar ratio of each component was investigated with gap-type electrode arrangement. At low electric fields, the current-voltage (I–V) characteristics has a linear shape, while at high electric fields (>10³ V/cm), bulk samples show nonlinear behavior (nonohmic conduction) and current-voltage characteristics shows increasing deviation from Ohm’s law with increasing current density. High-field effect of Pool-Frenkel type was observed at electrical fields about 10³−10⁴ V/cm. In addition, positive deviation from Pool-Frenkel effect was observed when a field higher than about 10⁴ V/cm was applied.

Bioactivity of SiO2-CaO-P2O5-Na2O glasses containing zinc-iron oxide

Glasses with composition x(ZnO,Fe₂O₃)(65 − x)SiO₂20(CaO,P₂O₅)15Na₂O (6 ≤ x ≤ 21 mol%) were prepared by melt-quenching technique. Bioactivity of the glasses was investigated in vitro by examining apatite formation on the surface of glasses treated in acellular simulated body fluid (SBF) with ion concentrations nearly equal to those in human blood plasma. Formation of bioactive apatite layer on the samples treated in SBF was confirmed by using Fourier transform infrared reflection (FTIR) spectroscopy, grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GI-XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer. Development of an apatite structure on the surface of the SBF treated glass samples as functions of composition and time could be established using the GI-XRD data. FTIR spectra of the glasses treated in SBF show features at characteristic vibration frequencies of apatite after 1-day of immersion in SBF. SEM observations revealed that the spherical particles formed on the glass surface were made of calcium and phosphorus with the Ca/P molar ratio being close to 1.67, corresponding to the value in crystalline apatite. Increase in bioactivity with increasing zinc-iron oxide content was observed. The results have been used to understand the evolution of the apatite surface layer as a function of glass composition and immersion time in SBF.     

Emission features of Ho ion in Nb2O5, Ta2O5 and La2O3 mixed Li2O-ZrO2-SiO2 glasses

Li₂O-ZrO₂-SiO₂: Ho³⁺ glasses mixed with three interesting d-block elemental oxides, viz., Nb₂O₅, Ta₂O₅ and La₂O₃, were prepared. Optical absorption and photoluminescence spectra of these glasses have been recorded at room temperature. The luminescence spectra of Nb₂O₅ and Ta₂O₅ mixed Li₂O-ZrO₂-SiO₂ glasses (free of Ho³⁺ ions) have also exhibited broad emission band in the blue region. This band is attributed to radiative recombination of self-trapped excitons (STEs) localized on substitutionally positioned octahedral Ta⁵⁺ and Nb⁵⁺ ions in the glass network. The Judd-Ofelt theory was successfully applied to characterize Ho³⁺ spectra of all the three glasses. From this theory various radiative properties, like transition probability A, branching ratio β_r and the radiative lifetime τ_r, for ⁵S₂ emission levels in the spectra of these glasses have been evaluated. The radiative lifetime for ⁵S₂ level of Ho³⁺ ions has also been measured and quantum efficiencies were estimated. Among the three glasses studied the La₂O₃ mixed glass exhibited the highest quantum efficiency. The reasons for such higher value have been discussed based on the relationship between the structural modifications taking place around the Ho³⁺ ions.     

Effect of ZnO/CdO on the structure and electrical conductivity in Li2O·MO·Bi2O3·B2O3 glasses (M=Zn, Cd)

Studies of structural and electrical properties have been carried out on a number of glasses with wide ranging compositions in the glass systems Li₂O·MO·Bi₂O₃·B₂O₃ (where M=Zn or Cd), in order to understand the effect of transition metal (TM) ions on the structure of these glasses. The density and molar volume measurements have also been made to understand the structural changes occurring in these glasses. The dc conductivity measured in the temperature range 423-623 K obeys Arrhenius law. It increases with increase in Li₂O/MO ratio. The results of infrared spectra indicate that TM ions (Zn²⁺ or Cd²⁺) behave as network former in the present system. Boron exists in both tri- and tetra-hedral units in these glasses and no boroxol ring formation takes place in the glass structure. Values of theoretical optical basicity have also been reported.

Ionic conductivity of sodium zinc silicates in the compositional region Na2ZnSiO4-Na2ZnSi2O6

The compositional region Na₂ZnSiO₄-Na₂ZnSi₂O₆ has been investigated by means of X-ray powder diffraction measurements on samples quenched from elevated temperatures. Four different phases have been observed. The powder pattern of the high and low temperature modification of Na₂ZnSiO₄ could thus be indexed on the basis of an orthogonal cell, while for Na_1.6Zn_0.8Si_1.2O₄ a cubic unit cell could be used. These phases are all structurally related to high-cristobalite. The powder pattern of the compound Na₂ZnSi₂O₆ has been indexed on the basis of a monoclinic unit cell. The variation of the ionic conductivity x in Na_xZn_0.5xSi_2-0.5xO₄ (1.25 ? x ? 2) has been determined. The best conductivity, 1 × 10^-2 (Ω cm)^-1 at 600 K is found for the composition Na_1.85Zn_0.925Si_1.075O₄.

Emission analysis of Dy and Pr:Bi2O3-ZnF2-B2O3-Li2O-Na2O glasses

In this paper, we present the spectral results of Dy³⁺ and Pr³⁺ (1.0 mol%) ions doped Bi₂O₃-ZnF₂-B₂O₃-Li₂O-Na₂O glasses. Measurements of X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) profiles of these rare-earth ions doped glasses have been carried out. From the DSC thermograms, glass transition (T_g), crystallization (T_c) and melting (T_m) temperatures have been evaluated. The direct and indirect optical band gaps have been calculated based on the glasses UV absorption spectra. The emission spectrum of Dy³⁺:glass has shown two emission transitions ⁴F_7/2→⁶H_15/2 (482 nm) and ⁴F_7/2→⁶H_13/2 (576 nm) with an excitation at 390 nm wavelength and Pr³⁺:glass has shown a strong emission transition ¹D₂→³H₄ (610 nm) with an excitation at 445 nm. Upon exposure to UV radiation, Dy³⁺ and Pr³⁺ glasses have shown bright yellow and reddish colors, respectively, from their surfaces.     

Effects of Nb2O5 on thermal stability and optical properties of Er3+-doped tellurite glasses

Er³⁺-doped tellurite glasses with molar compositions of xNb₂O₅-(14.7-x)Na₂O--10ZnO--5K₂O--10GeO₂-- 60TeO₂--0.3Er₂O₃ (x=0, 3, 5, 7 and 9) have been investigated for developing 1.5~μm fibre and planar amplifiers. The effects of Nb₂O₅ on the thermal stability and optical properties of Er³⁺-doped tellurite glasses have been discussed. It is noted that the incorporation of Nb₂O₅ (x=5) increases the thermal stability of tellurite glasses significantly. Er³⁺-doped niobium tellurite glasses exhibit a large stimulated emission cross-section (7.2\times 10^-21- 10.7×10^-21~cm² and the gain bandwidth, FWHM×\sigma_e^{\rm peak} (274\times 10^-28 - 480×10^-28~cm³), which are significantly higher than that of silicate and phosphate glasses. In addition, the intensity of upconversion luminescence of the Er³⁺-doped niobium tellurite glasses decreases rapidly with increasing Nb₂O₅ content. As a result, Er³⁺-doped niobium tellurite glasses might be a potential candidate for developing laser or optical amplifier devices.
