Spectral characteristics of antimony-phosphate glass
Determining the stable optimized compositions of the binary and ternary phases of antimony-phosphate glasses is the key issue. We prepare four series of glasses of the form (100- x)Sb2O3-xP2O5, where x = 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 mol%, (95-x)Sb2O3-xP2O5-5MgO, where x = 60, 45, 40, 35, 30 and 25 mol%, (8...

Determining the stable optimized compositions of the binary and ternary phases of antimony-phosphate glasses is the key issue. We prepare four series of glasses of the form (100- x)Sb2O3-xP2O5, where x = 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 mol%, (95-x)Sb2O3-xP2O5-5MgO, where x = 60, 45, 40, 35, 30 and 25 mol%, (85-x)Sb2O3-xP2O5-15MgO, where x = 60, 45, 40, 35, 30 and 25 mol% and (75-x)Sb2O3-xP2O5-25MgO, where x = 60, 45, 40, 35, 30 and 25 mol% via conventional melt quenching method. Structural and optical properties of these glasses are determined through FTIR, UV-Vis and PL measurements. The XRD patterns confirm the amorphous nature of samples. The FTIR spectra of all prepared glass series recorded in the spectral ranges of 400 to 4000 cm-1 demonstrates the presence of asymmetric stretching vibrations of (PO3)2, Sb2O3 doubly degenerate stretching vibrations, stretching vibration of P–O–Sb linkages, vibration modes of SbO3 of the valentinite and vibration modes of SbO3 of the valentinite.
