Investigation of structural,physical and optical properties of CeO2–Bi2O3–B2O3 glasses

xCeO₂–30Bi₂O₃–(70−x) B₂O₃ glasses are synthesized by using the melt quench technique. A number of studies such as XRD, density, molar volume, optical band gap, refractive index and FTIR spectroscopy are employed to characterize the glasses. The band gap decreases from 2.15 to 1.61 eV, refractive index increases from 2.67 to 2.93 and density increases from 4.151 to 4.633 g/cm³. The decrease in band gap with CeO₂ doping approaches the semiconductor behavior. FTIR spectroscopy reveals that incorporation of CeO₂ into glass network helps to convert the structural units of [BO₃] into [BO₄] and results in Bi–O bond vibration of [BiO₆].     

FTIR structural investigation of gamma irradiated BaO–Na2O–B2O3–SiO2 glasses

Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra of xBaO–15Na₂O–(70−x)B₂O₃–15SiO₂ glass system with x=0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 (mol%) has been measured in the spectral range 400–4000 cm⁻¹ at room temperature in order to understand the characteristic frequencies of the chemical bonds and bonding mechanisms, which are susceptible to the structural and spectral changes. The effect of gamma irradiation in the dose range 0.1 kGy–60 kGy on the infrared absorption spectra of these glasses is also reported. The change in the glass structure due to the effect of composition is also discussed. It has been observed that irradiation of the glasses with the gamma rays increases the BO₃ groups and the non bridging oxygens which make the network loose.     

Physical,optical and radiative properties of CaSO4–B2O3–P2O5 glasses doped with Sm3+ ions

Trivalent rare earth ions doped borosulfophosphate glasses are in high demand owing to their several unique attributes that are advantageous for applications in diverse photonic devices. Thus, Sm³⁺ ion doped calcium sulfoborophosphate glasses with composition of 25CaSO₄–30B₂O₃–(45?x)P₂O₅–xSm₂O₃ (where x?=?0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 1.0 mol%) were synthesized using melt-quenching technique. X-ray diffraction confirmed the amorphous nature of the prepared glass samples. Differential thermal analyses show transition peaks for melting temperature, glass transition and crystallization temperature. The glass stability is found in the range 91?°C to 116?°C which shows increased stability with addition of Sm₂O₃ concentration. The Fourier transform infrared spectral measurements carried out showed the presence of vibration bands due to PO linkage, BO_3, BO₄, PO₄, POP, OPO, SOB, and BOB unit. Glass density showed increase in value from 2.179 to 2.251?g cm^?3 with increase in Sm₂O₃ concentration. The direct, indirect band gap and Urbach energy calculated were found to be within 4.368–4.184?eV, 3.641–3.488?eV and 0.323–0.282?eV energy ranges, respectively. The absorption spectra revealed ten prominent peaks centered at 365, 400, 471, 941, 1075, 1228, 1375, 1477, 1528 and 1597?nm corresponding to ⁴D_3/2,⁶H_5/2→⁴I_11/2,⁶P_3/2, ⁶F_11/2, ⁶F_9/2, ⁶F_7/2, ⁶F_5/2, ⁶F_3/2, ⁶H_15/2 and ⁶F_1/2 transitions respectively. Photoluminescence spectra monitored at the excitation of 398?nm exhibits four emission bands positioned at 559, 596,643 and 709?nm corresponding to ⁴G_5/2→⁶H_5/2, ⁶H_7/2, ⁶H_9/2 and ⁶H_11/2 transitions respectively. The nephelauxetic parameters calculated showed good influence on the local environment within the samarium ions site and the state of the SmO bond. The Judd–Ofelt intensity parameters calculated for all glass samples revealed that Ω_6?>?Ω_4?>?Ω₂. The emission cross-section and the branching ratios values obtained for ⁴G_5/2→⁶H_7/2 transition indicate its suitability for LEDs and solid-state laser application.     

Preparation and characteristics of?a?BaO–Al2O3–B2O3–SiO2–La2O3 glass ceramic via spray pyrolysis

The characteristics of a BaO–Al₂O₃–B₂O₃–SiO₂–La₂O₃ glass ceramic prepared by spray pyrolysis were studied. Glass powders with spherical shape and amorphous phase were prepared by complete melting at a preparation temperature of 1 500°C. The mean size and geometric standard deviation of the powders prepared at the temperature of 1 500°C were 0.6 μm and 1.3. The glass powders had similar composition to that of the spray solution. The glass transition temperature (T _g) of the glass powders was 600.3°C. Two crystallization exothermic peaks were observed at 769.3 and 837.8°C. Densification of the specimen started at a sintering temperature of 600°C, in which Ba₄La₆O(SiO₄)₆ as main crystal structure was observed. Complete densification of the specimen occurred at a sintering temperature of 800°C. The specimens sintered at temperatures above 800°C had main crystal structure of BaAl₂Si₂O₈.     

Nonlinear optical properties of 75TeO2－20Nb2O5－5ZnO glasses doped with CeO2

Nonlinear optical properties of 75TeO_2－20Nb_2O_5－5ZnO glasses doped with CeO_2 have been investigated with a self-diffracted time-resolved degenerate four-wave mixing (DFWM) technique at different excitation intensities and lattice temperatures. The DFWM signal exhibits three peaks at higher excitation intensities, where a main peak appears at zero delay time and two rather weak side peaks are located symmetrically at the negative and positive time delay. Due to destructive interferences between the fifth- and third-order polarizations, the line-shape of the main peak around the zero time delay evolves from single peak into a double-peak structure with increasing excitation intensity. Two side peaks emerge at the positive and negative time delay and gradually intensify with increasing excitation intensity or lattice temperature, and their positions are independent of the pulse duration, temperature and excitation intensity, which are attributed to the many-body Coulomb interaction.     

Broadband near-IR emission and temperature dependence in Er/Tm co-doped Bi2O3–SiO2–Ga2O3 glasses

The broadband near-IR emission has been investigated in a series of Er/Tm co-doped Bi₂O₃–SiO₂–Ga₂O₃ (BSG) glasses with 800 nm laser diode as an excitation source. A broadband emission extending from 1350 to 1650 nm with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) around 165 nm is obtained in 0.2 wt% Er₂O₃ and 1.0 wt% Tm₂O₃ co-doped BSG glass. The fluorescence decay curves of glasses are measured and maximum energy transfer efficiency from Er³⁺ to Tm³⁺ reaches 71% when Tm³⁺ concentration is 1.0 wt%. The temperature dependence of the broadband emission spectra in Er³⁺–Tm³⁺ co-doped BSG glass is also recorded to further understand the energy-transfer processes between Er³⁺ and Tm³⁺. The present work suggests that Er/Tm co-doped BSG glasses can be a potential candidate for broadband integrated amplifier.     

Magnetic and structural properties of CaO–SiO2–P2O5–Na2O–Fe2O3 glass ceramics

Magnetic properties of glass ceramics derived from glasses with composition 41CaO·(52−x)SiO₂·4P₂O₅·xFe₂O₃·3Na₂O (2?x?10 mol% iron oxide (Fe₂O₃)) are reported. Structural investigation revealed the presence of nanocrystalline magnetite phase in the heat-treated samples containing x?2 mol% Fe₂O₃. Magnetic hysteresis cycles of the glass-ceramic samples were obtained with a maximum applied field of ±20 kOe as well as a low field of ±500 Oe, in order to evaluate the potential of these glass ceramics for hyperthermia treatment of cancer. Samples with x>2 mol% of iron oxide exhibited magnetic behavior similar to soft magnetic materials with low coercivity. The evolution of magnetic properties in these samples as a function of iron oxide molar concentration is correlated with the amount and crystallite size of magnetite phase present in them.

Preparation and spectral characterization of new Er3+-doped TeO2－B2O3－WO3－ZnO－ZnS glasses

Erbium-doped TeO_2-based oxysulfide glasses have been prepared in argon atmosphere in graphite crucibles. The results of thermal analysis and spectroscopic properties of Er^{3+} have been studied in terms of sulfide influence. As a function of composition, we have measured principally the optical absorption, spontaneous emission, and lifetime of the materials. Judd－Ofelt theory was introduced to calculate bandwidth and emission cross-section of Er^{3+}. The results demonstrate that addition of sulfide in tellurite glasses results in broad emission spectra, with high emission cross-section, slightly low emission lifetime and a comparatively high thermal stability as pure oxide glasses.

Synthesis and properties of MoO3–V2O5–PbO glasses

Lead vanadate glasses of the system xMoO₃–50V₂O₅–(50-x)PbO (0 ≤ x ≤ 25 mol. %) were synthesized and studied by FTIR and ultrasonic spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry to investigate the role of MoO₃ content on their atomic structure. The elastic properties and Debye temperatures of the glasses were investigated using sound velocity measurements at 4 MHz. The activation energy for the glass transition was derived from the dependence of the glass-transition temperature (T_g ) on the heating rate. Similarly, the activation energy of the crystallization process was also determined. According to the IR analysis, the vibrations of the vanadate structural units are shifted towards higher wavenumbers on the formation of bridging oxygens. The change of density and molar volume with MoO₃ content reveals that the molybdinate units are less dense than the lead oxide units. The observed compositional dependence of the elastic moduli is interpreted in terms of the effect of MoO₃ on the coordination number of the vanadate units. A good correlation was observed between the experimentally determined elastic moduli and those computed according to the Makishima–Mackenzie model. It is assumed that MoO₃ plays the role of a glass former by increasing the activation energy for the glass transition and the activation energy for crystallization and by increasing both the thermal stability and the glass formation range of the vanadate glasses.     

Optical,physical and structural studies of vanadium doped P2O5–BaO–Li2O glasses

Glasses in the compositions (Li₂O)₂₅–(BaO)₂₅–(P₂O₅)_50−x–(V₂O₅)_x (with x=0.5,1.0,1.5,2.0,2.5, and 3.0 mol%) have been prepared by the conventional melt quenching technique. X-ray powder diffractrogram show broad peaks which conforms glassy nature of the sample. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermograms show characteristic glass transition temperature (T_g) and it increases with increasing substitution of V₂O₅ for P₂O₅. The measured physical parameters like density, refractive index, ionic concentration and electronic polarizability are found to vary linearly with increasing x. Infrared spectra exhibits few bands, which are attributed to (P=O)_AS, (P=O)_S, (V=O), (P–O–P)_AS,P–O–V, (P–O–P)_AS and O–P–O vibrations. The optical absorption spectra of VO²⁺ ions in these glasses show three bands and are assigned to the ²B₂→ ²E,²B₂→ ²B₁ and ²B₂→ ²A₁ transitions. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of all the glass samples exhibit resonance signals characteristic of VO²⁺ ions. The values of Spin-Hamiltonian parameters indicate that the VO²⁺ ions are present in octahedral sites with tetragonal compression and belong to C_4V symmetry.     

Effects of BaCu（B2O5 ） addition on sintering temperature and microwave dielectric properties of Ba5Nb4O15–BaWO4 ceramics

The effects of BaCu(B2O5)(BCB) addition on the microstructure, phase formation, and microwave dielectric properties of Ba5Nb4O15–BaWO4ceramic are investigated. As a sintering aid, BaCu(B2O5) ceramic could effectively lower the sintering temperature of Ba5Nb4O15–BaWO4ceramic from 1100?C to 950?C due to the liquid-phase effect. Meanwhile,BaCu(B2O5) addition effectively improves the densification of Ba5Nb4O15–BaWO4ceramic and significantly influences the microwave dielectric properties. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that Ba5Nb4O15and BaWO4coexist with no crystal phase of BaCu(B2O5) in the sintered ceramics. The Ba5Nb4O15–BaWO4ceramics with 1.0 wt% BaCu(B2O5) sintered at 950?C for 2 h presents good microwave dielectric properties of εr = 19.0, high Q × f of 33802 GHz and low τfof2.5 ppm/?C.
