Transparent nanocrystal-in-glass composite (NGC) comprising functional nanocrystals in
transparent inorganic glass creates a new bridging from nano/microscale structure to …

Glass ceramics (GCs), which consist essentially of a homogeneous solid state dispersion of
nanocrystals (NCs) embedded in a chemically inert and mechanically robust glass matrix …

Confinement of light into small volumes has become an essential requirement for photonic
devices; examples of this trend are provided by optical fibers, integrated optical circuits …

Using a collective coordinate numerical optimization procedure, we construct ground-state
configurations of interacting particle systems in various space dimensions so that the …

Glass-ceramics (GCs) are constituted by nanometer-to-micron-sized crystals embedded in a
glass matrix; usually, their structural or functional elements (clusters, crystallites or …

Glass‐ceramics (GC s) are multiphase micro‐or nano‐crystalline materials produced by the
controlled nucleation and crystallization of an amorphous glass through a proper heating or …

Brillouin spectroscopy has been used to study the vibrational dynamics of clusters of
spherical polystyrene (PS) particles with different size. In a first approximation, the spectra …

Prediction of the material dispersed structure that provides a required transparency is of
considerable interest for producing optical glass ceramics (GCs) and two-phase ceramics. А …

This paper describes the structure of Er 3+-doped SiO 2–HfO 2 waveguides containing
nanocrystals of HfO 2. Pure and 1 mol% Er 3+-doped 70SiO 2–30HfO 2 films were …

This paper is an attempt to understand and interpret optical scattering in composite
materials. It focuses on phase-separated glasses and glass-ceramics that maintain …
