Null Isotope Study of Lithium Borogermanate Glasses
Alkali borogermanate glasses are topologically complex, in that [BOn] (n = 3, 4)and [GeOn] (n = 4, 5, 6) polyhedra may all coexist. Equilibrium between these structural units... -

Bismuth germanate glasses are technologically important for a number of reasons, including fibre-optical and laser applications, non-linear optical glasses, IR transmitting... -
Neutron diffraction study of local and mesoscopic disorder induced by La and ...
The accurate determination of the defect structure of rare earth (RE) doped ceria solid electrolytes is fundamental for the comprehension of oxygen diffusion and charge... -
The Structure of Lead Phosphomolybdate Glasses
Molybdenum containing glasses have many potential applications. However, there is little information available on the structural role of molybdenum in glasses, and the limited... -
The structural role of zinc in complex phosphate glasses for new bone cements
A study of zinc containing phosphate glasses for biomedical applications is proposed. The structural role of zinc as a function of composition will be investigated through... -
Metastable phase formation and memory effects in barium borate glasses.
BaB4O7 glass crystallises to different polymorphs of the same composition depending on the prior thermal history of the glass and the surface area of the sample. This indicates... -
Local and intermediate-range order in AgI-containing glasses
Usual structural hypothesis related to superionic glasses containing metal halides MY = LiI, NaBr, AgI, etc., implies the absence of chemical interactions between the host glass... -
Polyhedra Coexistence in Alkali Borogermanate Glasses
GeO2-rich potassium borogermanate glasses are topologically complex, in that [BOn] (n = 3, 4) and [GeOn] (n = 4, 5, 6) polyhedra may all coexist. We wish to determine average... -

Structural and Magnetic Characterizations of the New, High Pressure Synthesiz...
After an almost forty year lull in research on multiferroic materials, there has been a resurgence of interest in them. However, it is particularly challenging to synthesize a... -
Structure of B2O3-GeO2 glass by neutron diffraction with isotope substitution
The composition dependent structure of glasses in the B2O3-GeO2 system will be measured by employing the method of neutron diffraction with Ge isotope substitution. This system... -
Structural Models of the Polymorphs of Gallium Oxide
Gallium oxide is an apparently simple oxide that has been reported to exist as at least 5 polymorphs all of which are stable at room temperature. Structural models, however, for... -
