Role of Heavy Metal Ions in the Formation of Oxyfluoride Glasses and Glass Ceramics

摘要

In order to investigate the influence of different heavy metal ions on the formation of the oxyfluoride glasses and glass ceramics, samples with different Pb F2/Cd F2 ratios have been prepared by the melting quenching and thermal treatment method. The different effects of Pb2 tand Cd2ton the glass network structure are investigated by FTIR and Raman spectra. During the formation of glass network structure, Pb2 tprefers to break the Sie Oe Si bond and subsequently bond to F for charge compensation, and Cd2 tprefers to break the SieO eA l bond and is surrounded by O2. Pb2 tand F gather together and form the fluoride nanocrystals,while Cd2 tremains in oxide matrix after thermal treatment. Introduction of proper Cd F2 is important to adjust and control the glass network structure and crystallization process in the fabrication of the transparent glass ceramics.
