荧光俘获效应对掺饵氧化物玻璃光谱性质的影响

测试了不同掺杂浓度和样品厚度下掺铒磷酸盐和碲酸盐玻璃的吸收光谱、荧光光谱和荧光寿 命，计算了Er³⁺离子在1.53 μm处的吸收截面(σ_a)、发射截面(σ _e)、自发辐射跃迁概率(A_rad)、辐射跃迁寿命(τ_rad) 、以及辐射跃迁量子效率(η)等光谱参数.讨论了荧光俘获效应对掺铒磷酸盐和碲酸盐玻璃 光谱性质及光谱参数的影响.结果表明即使在铒离子低掺杂浓度(0.1 mol% Er₂O ₃)下，荧光俘获效应也普遍存在于掺铒玻璃材料中，使得荧光寿命(τ_{f)和荧光半高宽(FWHM)随样品的厚度和铒离子掺杂浓度增加而增大，导致碲酸盐和磷酸 盐玻璃中τf分别增加11%—37％和6%—17%，FWHM分别增加15%—64%和11%—55% ，使得掺铒玻璃材料的放大品性参数(σe×FWHM) 也相应被估高.由于铒离子在 碲酸盐玻璃中在1.53 μm处吸收和发射截面重叠面积较大，加之铒离子在前者基质中的发射 截面高于后者，使得掺铒碲酸盐玻璃中的荧光俘获效应高于磷酸盐玻璃. 关键词： 荧光俘获 铒离子 碲酸盐玻璃 磷酸盐玻璃}     

High-precision measurements of the compressibility of chalcogenide glasses at a hydrostatic pressure up to 9 GPa

The volumes of glassy germanium chalcogenides GeSe₂, GeS₂, Ge₁₇Se₈₃, and Ge₈Se₉₂ are precisely measured at a hydrostatic pressure up to 8.5 GPa. The stoichiometric GeSe₂ and GeS₂ glasses exhibit elastic behavior in the pressure range up to 3 GPa, and their bulk modulus decreases at pressures higher than 2–2.5 GPa. At higher pressures, inelastic relaxation processes begin and their intensity is proportional to the logarithm of time. The relaxation rate for the GeSe₂ glasses has a pronounced maximum at 3.5–4.5 GPa, which indicates the existence of several parallel structural transformation mechanisms. The nonstoichiometric glasses exhibit a diffuse transformation and inelastic behavior at pressures above 1–2 GPa. The maximum relaxation rate in these glasses is significantly lower than that in the stoichiometric GeSe₂ glasses. All glasses are characterized by the “loss of memory” of history: after relaxation at a fixed pressure, the further increase in the pressure returns the volume to the compression curve obtained without a stop for relaxation. After pressure release, the residual densification in the stoichiometric glasses is about 7% and that in the Ge₁₇Se₈₃ glasses is 1.5%. The volume of the Ge₈Se₉₂ glass returns to its initial value within the limits of experimental error. As the pressure decreases, the effective bulk moduli of the Ge₁₇Se₈₃ and Ge₈Se₉₂ glasses coincide with the moduli after isobaric relaxation at the stage of increasing pressure, and the bulk modulus of the stoichiometric GeSe₂ glass upon decreasing pressure noticeably exceeds the bulk modulus after isobaric relaxation at the stage of increasing pressure. Along with the reported data, our results can be used to draw conclusions regarding the diffuse transformations in glassy germanium chalcogenides during compression.

Scaling properties of dynamic response in orientational glasses

The freezing transition in dipolar and quadrupolar glasses is characterized by the presence of local random electric and strain fields generated by substitutional disorder. The dynamic response in the ergodic phase above the freezing temperature T_F is studied in terms of Langevin dynamics applied to the recently formulated symmetry-adapted random-bond-random-field (SARBRF) model of orientational glasses. Following the theory of spin glasses it is assumed that for T≥T_F the response can be written in a dynamic scaling form by introducing a scaling exponent v and a frequency scaling variable. The value of v(T) is explicitly evaluated for the quadrupolar (100) SARBRF model, and its relation to the experimentally observed effective exponent u_eFF(T) in dipolar and quadrupolar glasses is discussed.     

Diffusion of 22Na and 45Ca and ionic conduction in two standard soda-lime glasses

The tracer diffusivities of ²²Na and ⁴⁵Ca in two high-quality silica glasses produced by the Deutsche Glastechnische Gesellschaft as standard glasses I and II have been measured in the temperature range between 473 K and 783 K. The temperature dependences of the tracer diffusion coefficients in both glasses follow Arrhenius laws. The diffusion of ²²Na is more than six orders of magnitude faster than the diffusion of ⁴⁵Ca. The ionic conductivity was determined by frequency-dependent impedance spectroscopy and the conductivity diffusion coefficient D_σ was deduced from the dc conductivity via the Nernst–Einstein relation. The temperature dependences of D_σ for both glasses follow also Arrhenius functions. The activation parameters and pre-exponential factors for tracer diffusion and for conductivity diffusion were determined. The activation enthalpy of ²²Na and the activation enthalpy of the dc conductivity are equal, showing that the conductivity of standard glasses is due to the motion of Na ions. The viscosity diffusivities D_η were determined from available viscosity data using the Stokes–Einstein relation. They are considerably slower than both tracer diffusivities. The Haven ratios H_R are temperature independent for both glasses. The diffusivities of ²²Na and ⁴⁵Ca in soda-lime glasses increase with increasing Na₂O content.     

Solid-state NMR study of bioactive binary borosilicate glasses

A series of binary borosilicate glasses prepared by the sol-gel method are shown to be bioactive. Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and trimethylborate (TMB) in acidic medium are used to prepare xB₂O₃·(1−x)SiO₂ glass systems for x=0.045-0.167. The formation of a layer of apatite-like mineral on the glass surface becomes apparent after soaking in simulated body fluid for 48 h. We have measured the ¹¹B-¹¹B homonuclear second moments of the borosilicate glasses and inferred that no macroscopic phase separation occurred in our glasses. The ¹¹B chemical shift data also show that the formation of clustered boroxol rings is negligible in our glass system. Although the bioactivity of our borosilicate glasses is less than that of CaO-SiO₂ sol-gel glasses, these simple binary systems could be taken as reference glass systems for the search of new bioactive borosilicate glasses.     

Effect of rapid quenching on electrical properties of lithium conductive glasses

A twin roller apparatus has been designed to be used in a controlled environment, so that even hydroscopic and oxidizable glasses may be prepared by rapid quenching. xLi₂O(1?x)P₂O₅ and xLi₂S(1?x)GeS₂ glasses have been prepared and their electrical conductivity measured as a function of temperature. The electrical characteristics of rapidly quenched and conventional glasses are compared in order to study the influence of the cooling rate. The results are quite different for oxide and sulfide glasses. Rapid quenching does not much affect oxide glasses whereas for sulfide glasses important decreases in activation energies and pre-exponential factors are observed.     

Structure and electrical properties of SrO-borovanadate (V2O5)0.5(SrO)0.5−y(B2O3)y glassses

SrO-borovanadate glasses with nominal composition (V₂O₅)_0.5(SrO)_0.5−y(B₂O₃)_y, 0.0≤y≤0.4 were prepared by a normal quench technique and investigated by direct current (DC) electrical conductivity, inductively coupled plasma (ICP) spectroscopy, infrared (IR) spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) studies in an attempt to understand the nature of mechanism governing the DC electrical conductivity and the effect of addition of B₂O₃ on the structure and electrical properties of these glasses. XRD patterns confirm the amorphous nature of the present glasses and actual compositions of the glasses were determined by ICP spectroscopy. The temperature dependence of DC electrical conductivity of these glasses has been studied in terms of different hopping models. The IR results agree with previous investigations on similar glasses and it has been concluded that similar to SrO-vanadate glasses, metavandate chain-like structures of SrV₂O₆ and individual VO₄ units also occur in SrO-borovanadate glasses. The SrV₂O₆ and VO_n polyhedra predominate in the low B₂O₃-containing SrO-borovanadate glasses as B substitutes into the V sites of the various VO_n polyhedra and only when the concentration of B₂O₃ exceeds the SrO content do BO_n structures appear. This qualitative picture of three distinct structural groupings for Sr-vanadate and Sr-borovanadate glasses is consistent with the proposed glass structure on previous IR and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) studies on these types of glasses. The conductivity results were analyzed with reference to theoretical models existing in the literature and the analysis shows that the conductivity data are consistent with Mott's nearest neighbor hopping model. Analysis of the conductivity data shows that they are consistent with Mott's nearest neighbor hopping model. However, both Mott VRH and Greaves models are suitable to explain the data. Schnakenberg's generalized polaron hopping model is also consistent with temperature dependence of activation energy. However, various model parameters such as density of states, hopping energy, etc. obtained from the best fits were not found to be in accordance with the prediction of the Mott model.

Influence of annealing on magnetic properties of Co-based metallic glasses

The influence of low-temperature annealing on the magnetic hysteresis loop parameters of magnetostrictive Co-Si-B and nonmagnetostrictive Co-Fe-Si-B glasses was studied. The dependence of Curie temperature (T_C), crystallization temperature (T_x), full-stress-relaxation temperature, saturation magnetostriction constant, saturation magnetization and coercive field H_c on metalloids contents for as quenched Co_100-x(Si_0.5B_0.5)_x glasses was determined.It was found that annealing enhances remanence magnetization for all investigated Co-Si-B glasses. The coercive field of these glasses is influenced by annealing owing to: stress relaxation (resulting in an H_c decrease) and domain structure stabilization (resulting in an H_c increase). Significant H_c reduction for both magnetostrictive and non-magnetostrictive glasses was observed, after annealing above T_C. For glasses with T_C<>T_x, it was necessary to apply an external magnetic field in ord er to decrease H_c.It was found that non-magnetostrictive metallic glasses with low Curie temperatures (T_C ? 450 K) exhibit the most stable magnetic hysteresis loop parameters.     

Proton conductivity in sol–gel-derived P2O5–TiO2–SiO2 glasses

The sol–gel method was applied to prepare the P₂O₅–TiO₂–SiO₂ glasses with high proton conductivities and chemical stability. The glasses were prepared by the reaction of the Ti- and Si-alkoxides with PO(OCH₃)₃ or H₃PO₄, followed by heating at 600 °C. The obtained glasses were porous, the average pore diameter of which was <2 and 4 nm for glasses prepared using PO(OCH₃)₃ and H₃PO₄, respectively. The phosphorous ions, occurring as PO(OH)₃ in the TiO₂-free glass, were polymerized with one or two bridging-oxygen ions per PO₄ unit with the increasing TiO₂ content. Despite the P₂O₅–SiO₂ binary glasses exhibiting high conductivities of ∼10⁻² S/cm at room temperature, they also dissolved after immersing for 24 h in water. The chemical stability of these glasses increased significantly on the addition of TiO₂.     

Magnetostriction of ferromagnetic metallic glasses

Linear saturation magnetostrictions (295 K) of Fe_80t-xCo_xB₂₀, 0?x?80, and Fe_80?xNi_xB₂₀, 0?x?60 (at. %) glasses are reported. The saturation magnetostrictions of the Fe-Ni-base glasses vary as the sqaure of their respective saturation magnetizations. The behavior in the Fe-Co-base glasses is strikingly different. The compositional trends suggest a difference in origin of magnetostrictions between Fe-Ni-base and Co-containing glasses. When magnetostrictions for these glasses are compared with those for Fe-Co and Fe-Ni polycrystalline alloys, the most significant discrepancies appear in the Fe-rich compositions. This is probably related to the difference in short range order between the crystalline and non-crystalline Fe-rich alloys: α-Fe is 8-fold coordinated whereas all of the metallic glasses studied show ～ 12-fold metal coordination.     

Low temperature elastic behaviour of As-Sb-Se and Ge-Sb-Se glasses

The ternary glasses of arsenic and germanium with antimony and selenium can be prepared in large sizes for optical purposes. The elastic behaviour of eight compositions of each glass has been studied down to 4.2 K using a 10 MHz ultrasonic pulse echo interferometer. The glasses have a normal elastic behaviour, with the velocities gradually increasing as the temperature is lowered. An anharmonic solid model of Lakkad satisfactorily explains the temperature variations. The elastic moduli of Ge _x Sb₁₀Se_90?x glasses increase linearly as the Ge content is increased up to 25 at. % and beyond this the increase is nonlinear. (AsSb)₄₀Se₆₀ glasses show a linear increase in elastic moduli with increasing Sb content. The elastic moduli of As _x Sb₁₅Se_85?x glasses exhibit a drastic change near the stoichiometric composition As₂₅Sb₁₅Se₆₀. These behaviours have been qualitatively explained on the basis of the structural changes in glasses.     

Specific features of photo and thermoluminescence of Tb ions in BaO-M2O3 (M=Ga, Al, In)-P2O5 glasses

BaO-P₂O₅ glasses mixed with the three metal oxides viz., Al₂O₃, Ga₂O₃ and In₂O₃ doped with Tb₂O₃ were prepared. The glasses were characterized by X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis. Optical absorption and photoluminescence spectra and thermoluminescence (TL) of these glasses have been studied. From the measured intensities of various absorption bands of these glasses, the Judd-Ofelt parameters Ω₂, Ω₄ and Ω₆ have been evaluated and compared with those of other reported glass systems. The Judd-Ofelt theory could successfully be applied to characterize the absorption and luminescence spectra of these glasses. From this theory various radiative properties like transition probability A, branching ratio β_r, the radiative lifetime τ_r and the emission cross-section σ^E for various emission levels of these glasses have been determined and reported. An attempt has also been made to throw some light on the relationship between the structural modifications and luminescence efficiencies of all the three glasses. The analysis of TL data indicate high non-radiative losses in In₂O₃ mixed glasses.

Ionic conductivity in nanoporous composites SiO2/AgI

In this work, porous silicate glasses were mixed with an ionic conductor AgI to obtain SiO₂/AgI composites. The porous glasses were either commercial Vycor glass (VPG) from Corning or synthesised from phase separated SiO₂–B₂O₃–Na₂O glasses. Depending upon the elaboration process, glasses with different pore sizes were obtained (4, 20 and 40 nm). Composites comprising different amounts of AgI were prepared by heating above the melting point of AgI. SEM characterisation of the obtained composites indicated that heat treatment induced an increase in the pore sizes. The conductivity of the composites was measured by impedance spectroscopy. The maximum conductivity, twice as large as that of pure AgI, was obtained for the 50AgI/50VPG composite, i.e. that comprising the glasses with the smallest pores.     

Effect of neutron-irradiation on optical properties of SiO2-Na2O-MgO-Al2O3 glasses

Silica based glasses are used as nuclear shielding materials. The effect of radiation on these glasses varies as per the constituents used in these glasses. Glasses of different composition of SiO₂-Na₂OMgO-Al₂O₃ were made by melt casting techniques. These glasses were irradiated with neutrons of different fluences. Optical absorption measurements of neutron-irradiated silica based glasses were performed at room temperature (RT) to detect and characterize the induced radiation damage in these materials. The absorption band found for neutron-irradiated glasses are induced by hole type color centers related to non-bridging oxygen ions (NBO) located in different surroundings of glass matrix. Decrease in the transmittance indicates the formation of color-center defects. Values for band gap energy and the width of the energy tail above the mobility gap have been measured before and after irradiation. The band gap energy has been found to decrease with increasing fluence while the Urbach energy shows an increase. The effects of the composition of the glasses on these parameters have been discussed in detail in this paper.      

Third-order nonlinear optical properties of GeSe2-Ga2Se3-PbI2 glasses

The third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of new selenium-based GeSe₂-Ga₂Se₃-PbI₂ glasses have been measured using the optical Kerr effect (OKE) technique, with picosecond and femtosecond laser pulses. The 0.70GeSe₂-0.15Ga₂Se₃-0.15PbI₂ glass has the largest third-order optical nonlinear susceptibility in GeSe₂-Ga₂Se₃-PbI₂ glass system with χ⁽³⁾ of 5.28×10¹² esu. In addition, the response time of glasses is sub-picosecond, which is predominantly associated with electron cloud. Local structure of the glasses has been identified by using Raman studies, while the origins of the observed nonlinear optical response are discussed. The [Ge(Ga)Se₄] tetrahedral and lone-pair electrons from highly polarizable Pb atom in glasses play an important role in enhanced NLO response. These results as well as their good chemical stability indicate that GeSe₂-Ga₂Se₃-PbI₂ glasses are promising materials for photonic applications of third-order nonlinear optical signal processing.     

Optical absorption spectrum of Cu2O-CaO-P2O5 glasses

Homogeneous CaO-P₂O₅ and Cu₂O-CaO-P₂O₅ glasses were prepared using a melt-quenched method under controlled conditions. The binary glasses were found to be colourless and transparent while the ternary glasses changed from light green to dark green as the Cu₂O content increased. From the absorption edge studies, the values of the optical band gap, E_opt and Urbach energy, ΔE were evaluated. The position of the absorption edge and hence the optical band gap were found to depend on the glass composition. Analysis of the optical band gap shows that for the binary glasses, the value increases as the content of CaO decreases, while for the ternary glasses, the value of the optical band gap increases as the content of the Cu₂O decreases. The density of the glasses was also measured and was found to increase with the increase in CaO and Cu₂O contents.
