Density, differential thermal analysis (DTA), optical absorption spectra and luminescence technique were used to characterize the prepared glasses. Emis- sion spectra showed two band 6p7/2→8S7/2 (311.5 nm) and 6p5/2→8S7/2 (305 nm) under the excitation of 274 nm. The intense emission at 311.5 nm suggested that these glasses could be useful as source of narrowband UV light.展开更多
The present investigation was to understand the electrical properties of 27.5 Li2O-(72.5–x) B2O(3-x)Nd2O3 with x=0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 glasses. We analyzed the impedance data for a wide frequency range to get inside ...The present investigation was to understand the electrical properties of 27.5 Li2O-(72.5–x) B2O(3-x)Nd2O3 with x=0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 glasses. We analyzed the impedance data for a wide frequency range to get inside the conduction phenomenon. The conductivity of the glasses decreased due to the decrease in the mobility of mobile Li~+ ions. This decrease was due to polymerization of glass network caused by the Nd^3+ ions. Modulus formalism confirmed that the Li~+ ions overcame the same barrier no matter whether it took part in the conduction process or relaxation process. Scaling of the electrochemical data showed that conduction process in the ion conducting glasses was composition dependent and not the temperature dependent.展开更多
