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... -
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... -
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... -

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... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
A Structural Study of Alkaline-Earth Tellurite Glasses.
We wish to better understand the interaction between the alkaline earth modifiers and the tellurite glass network. The aim is to relate structural changes in the glasses with... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
Structural studies of bioactive yttrium doped alumino-silicate glasses.
Yttrium doped glasses are of considerable interest due to their potential for use as in-vivo radioactive beta- emitters for localised treatment of liver cancer and other... -
The Structural Effects of adding TiO2 to Calcium Phosphate Glasses.
