The state of polymerization in barium silicate glasses (xBaO·(1-x) SiO 2, 0.28≤ x≤ 0.45)
has been studied by both experiment (Raman, static and MAS 29 Si NMR spectroscopy) and …

Stress corrosion cracking is a well-known phenomenon in oxide glasses. However, how
amorphous phase separation (APS) alters stress corrosion cracking, and the overall …

Transparent oxyfluoride glass ceramics (GCs) comprised of a uniform oxide glass phase
and a well-distributed fluoride crystal phase are regarded as suitable optical gain materials …

Abstract Effects of dopants with different valences on the densification behavior and phase
composition of a ZrO 2–SiO 2 nanocrystalline glass-ceramic (NCGC) during pressureless …

It is well recognized that a widely wavelength‐tunable mid‐infrared (MIR) fiber laser plays
an important role in the development of compact and efficient coherent sources in the MIR …

Binary alkali silicate glasses were synthesized as beads by aerodynamic levitation coupled
to laser heating to test the applicability of the method to this compositional range. While …

The scintillator is the most crucial component in the high‐energy ray detection system. The
available scintillators suffer from the insurmountable drawbacks including poor shaping …

Due to the unusual crystallization of (nominally) stoichiometric BaSi 2 O 5 (BS2) glass, which
shows unexpected and diverse crystal phases, a series of six glasses with different …

Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is a prevalent phenomenon in silicate liquids. The
ionic potential of the cations is widely recognized as a pivotal factor controlling the …

Due to the intrinsic brittleness of ceramics, it is challenging to shape and plastically deform
them. In this study, we plastically deformed ZrO 2-SiO 2 dual-phase nanocrystalline …
