摘要

Glasses in the (100 - x)(0.5PbO center dot 0.5P(2)O(5))center dot xTeO(2) section of the PbO-P2O5-TeO2 system have been synthesized over the entire composition range for the first time and their properties (Raman spectra, refractive index n, density d, glass transition temperature T-g, and light scattering losses) have been investigated. It has been demonstrated that the Raman spectra can be represented as a superposition of constant spectral forms corresponding to constant stoichiometry groupings PbO center dot P2O5, TeO2 center dot 2PbO center dot 2P(2)O(5), Te(O)2 center dot PbO center dot P2O5, 2TeO(2)center dot PbO center dot P2O5, and TeO2. The existence of crystals of the corresponding stoichiometry has been predicted using the constant stoichiometry grouping concept. The diagram of the constant stoichiometry grouping contents (determined from the Raman spectra) in glasses of the system under investigation has made it possible to determine the partial properties of constant stoichiometry groupings, to calculate the dependences of the refractive index and density on the composition, and to refine the values of n and d for vitreous tellurium dioxide and lead metaphosphate. The practical importance of glasses in the system under consideration for the use in photonic devices has been discussed.
