Abstract: | The structural properties of the xTeO2·(1-x)B2O3 glasses (x = 0.6; 0.7) were investigated by FT-IR spectroscopy. From the analysis of the FTIR spectra, it is reasonable to
assume that by the increasing of boron ions content, the tetrahedral BO4] units are gradually replaced by the trigonal BO3] units. The increase in the number of non-bridging oxygen atoms would decrease the connectivity of the glass network and
will yield the depolymerization of the borate chains. The molecular structure and vibrational frequencies of the proposed
structural models have been studied by exploring the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The FTIR spectra of the
xTeO2·(1-x)B2O3 vitreous systems were compared with the calculated spectrum. This procedure allowed us to assign most of the observed IR
bands. |
