Sm3+ doped CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 glass and glass ceramics have been prepared. The diopside crystal (CaMgSi2O6) was identified in the glass ceramics by X-ray diffraction analysis. X-ray photoelectron spectra of the glass and glass ceramics were measured by a monochromatised Al-K alpha XPS instrument. Sm 3d core level spectra for the Sm doped samples showed that Sm ions are predominantly in the Sm (III) state in glass and glass ceramics. The O 1s core spectra could be fitted by summing the contributions from bridging oxygen (BO) and non bridging oxygen (NBO) for samarium undoped glass, BO. NBO and Si-O-Sm for the doped glass. The O 1s XPS spectrum of undoped glass ceramics was curve fitted with BO and NBO in glass phase, as well as SiOSi, SiOMg and SiOCa in diopside. In addition to the five components above mentioned, SiOSm in diopside also appeared in O 1s XPS spectra of samarium doped glass ceramics. According to the fitting results, we demonstrate that the Sm2O3 exist in glass network as a glass modifier. After heat treatment, nearly all the Sm3+ existed in diopside phase as the substitution for Ca2+. Crown Copyright (c) 2010 Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
