The Structural Effects of adding TiO2 to Calcium Phosphate Glasses.
This study will investigate the structural effect of adding titanium oxide to a calcium phosphate bioactive glass. We wish to understand the structural origins of the increased... -
Structure of niobium phosphate glasses
Niobium is one of the candidates for causing strong non-linear optical properties in oxide glasses. Recently, Raman gain experiments on niobium phosphate glasses were quite... -
A structural study of titanium tellurite glasses
Tellurite glasses exhibit strong non-linear properties which are related to the asymmetric environment of the Te atom. The non-linear optical effects are strongest when the Te... -
Developing a model for tellurium coordination change in glasses
We wish to better understand the evolution of the tellurium environment in glasses with the addition of modifier oxides. The aim is to relate these structural changes to the... -
Null Isotope Study of Lithium Borogermanate Glasses - continuation
Alkali borogermanate glasses are topologically complex, in that [BOn] (n = 3, 4)and [GeOn] (n = 4, 5, 6) polyhedra can coexist. Equilibrium between these structural units has... -
Breaking Zachariasen rules - the structure of barium zirconium fluoride glasses
Glass is an essential material with applications that are dominated by oxides, but fluoride glasses (based on barium zirconium fluorides, "ZBLAN" glasses) have key applications... -
Investigating the structure of novel chloride-containing bioactive glasses fo...
A range of novel chlorine-containing bioactive glasses have recently been developed at Queen Mary University of London for dental and orthopaedic applications. At present little... -
Atomic structure of barium tin phosphate glasses
Tin phosphate glasses are an alternative as lead-free glasses with zero photoelastic constant (PEC) for fiber applications. A second modifier oxide is added for improving the... -
Neutron Diffraction Studies of Iron Silicate Glasses with Alkali Ion Inclusions
The objective of this study is to examine the local structure of a set of Iron Silicate glasses containing a single alkali metal in order to understand the correlation of... -
The environment of lithium in an invert glass
We request beamtime to study lithium silicate glasses over a very wide composition range from 20 to 65 mol.% Li2O, made by rapid quenching. For the higher Li2O contents, the... -
Investigating the structure of novel fluoride-containing bioactive glasses fo...
We propose to study a range of novel fluorine-containing bioactive glasses with potential applications in dentistry and orthopaedics. At present little is known about the atomic... -
A neutron diffraction study of the structural origins of anionic solubility i...
We will study the origins of the solubility of problematic anionic species (sulphate and chloride) in borosilicate glasses representative of real-world radioactive waste... -

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... -
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... -
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...
