Effect of samarium on the physical, structural and optical properties of borotellurite glass system / Siti Nasuha Mohd Rafien

A series of glasses with composition (70-x)TeO2 + 20B2O3 + 10ZnO + xSm2O3, where 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 2.5 mol % has been prepared with different concentration of samarium ions using melt-quenching method. The amorphous nature of the glass has been investigated through X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and all glasses ar...
