Vibrational Studies of Glass Structure and Localized Interactions

  • Chapter
Structure and Bonding in Noncrystalline Solids

Abstract

Infrared absorption and Raman spectroscopic measurements of binary alkali oxide containing silicate, phosphate, and borate glasses yield features assignable to predominantly ionic cation site interactions in addition to network vibrations characteristic of the glass former oxide. Intense bands observed in Far IR spectra are assigned to vibrations of cations at localized sites in the glass. These features exhibit marked frequency shifts with cation mass, cation charge and glass stoichiometry but show little dependence on the nature of the glass former oxide. Bulk glass properties, including glass transition temperature and conductivity activation energy, scale with cation-site frequency which is an important parameter in models describing such phenomena.
