S. Blair et al., A comparison of crystalline and vitreous lead borates using laser photoionization mass spectroscopy, J NON-CRYST, 293, 2001, pp. 490-495
A high resolution, laser desorption time of flight mass spectrometer (LITOF
-MS) Was used to study lead borate glasses and crystals. This technique pro
vides valuable information about glass structure, including the superstruct
ural network units. Several structural units Were identified and We found e
vidence of it lead Substructure beginning to form in the glass With increas
ed lead content. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
