The quaternary 56TeO2-24B2O3-(20-x)SiO2-xSm2O3 (x = 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04 and 0.05 M fraction) glasses were fabricated by using melt quenching method. XRD analysis reveals the amorphous nature of the prepared glass samples. FTIR and deconvolution studies show that Sm2O3 influences the modification...
