Neodymium-doped borosilicate glasses’ opto-radiative properties to advance electronic materials
摘要
A set of glasses was created having the composition 45 B2O3-15 SiO2-20BaF2- (20-x)Na2O- x Nd2O3, where x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0 mol%, in order to maximize shielding qualities. The densities of Nd-0.0, Nd-0.25, Nd-0.5, Nd-0.75, and Nd-1.0 are 3.1925, 3.2141, 3.2358, 3.2565, and 3.2778 g/cm3. The steady drop in volume per molar from 30.2589 towards 30.1747 cm3/mol further supports the denser structure. The direct band gap
