Glass samples containing Nd3+ were prepared by melt-quenching technique. The structure and properties of these glass samples were studied through X-ray diffraction and physical property testing, revealing their metallization characteristics.
Glass samples containing Nd3+ in ytterbium-zinc-lithium-calcium-potassiumniobate-phosphate (35-x) P2O5:10ZnO:10Li(2)O:10CaO:10K(2)O:15Nb(2)O(5):10Yb(2)O(3):xNd(2)O(3) (where x = 1, 1.5, 2%) have been prepared by melt-quenching technique. The nature of the glass sample was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The physical properties such as rare-earth ion concentration, optical dielectric constant, polaron radius, interionic distance, density, molar volume, oxygen packing density, field strength were investigated by formula. The optical basicity was calculated from refractive index and measured from oxide ion polarizability. The optical basicity and electronic polarizability were found to be increased with increasing refractive index. The electrical susceptibility and electronegativity have been calculated on the basis of refractive index and optical basicity, respectively. The small value of metallization indicates that the glass materials are metalizing.
