Ha. El-batal et al., Gamma ray interaction, crystallization and infrared absorption spectra of some glasses and glass-ceramics from the system Li2O.B2O3.Al2O3, I J PA PHYS, 39(9), 2001, pp. 565-573
The infrared absorption spectra of some selected ternary glasses and their
glass-ceramic derivatives from the system Li2O-B2O3-Al2O3 have been measure
d in the spectral range 200-4000 cm(-1) before and after successive gamma r
ays irradiation. Vibrational and crystallization techniques are employed to
investigate the structure and phases which are found in this system by con
trolled crystallization. The role of Al2O3 in the structure and the crystal
lization behaviour of the system has been discussed. The effect of gamma ra
ys on the surface of the glasses and glass-ceramics as revealed from infrar
ed spectroscopy is discussed.
