Due to the absence of microstructure and virtually infinite compositional versatility, glassy
materials are perfect candidates for rational methods to predict structure-property …

The structure of glasses and the melts from which they are formed is intrinsically disordered,
making their structural characterization difficult. Whilst the structure of solid minerals can be …

The present work elucidates the synthesis of Dy 3+ doped barium silicate glasses, along
with the subsequent studies performed to evaluate its viability in solid state lighting …

Copper–lead and copper–zinc borate glasses with different copper contents were prepared
and studied for correlations between structure and mechanical properties, where the cations …

A series of transition and post-transition metal ion (Mn, Cu, Zn, Pb, Bi) binary borate glasses
was studied with special consideration of the cations impact on the borate structure, the …

Viscosity, density and glass transition temperature measurements were performed on the
simple PbO-SiO 2 system with increasing PbO content from 5 to 70 mol%. The results of …

A multi-spectroscopic investigation of glasses xPbO-(100-x) B 2 O 3, where 30≤ x≤ 80, was
undertaken employing Raman, 207 Pb static NMR, and 11 B MAS NMR spectroscopies. The …

The two first chapters of this volume focus on the structure of magmas at different scales:
short and medium range order. A quick review of the glass literature, from the 90's or older …

Over the past three decades, researchers have investigated the existence of possible
relationships between crystal nucleation kinetics and the atomic-scale structure of silicate …

Exploring the atomic-level structure of lead aluminosilicate glass is extremely important for
improving the performance of the related products such as optical devices and …
