Welcome Method to organize an international conference

Edgar Dutra

scar.br

In this talk I will address an empirical method I have used in organizing several conferences in the past three decades. This method has been updated continuously over the years and the last version has been applied to the present conference: the XXII International Congress on Glass. Once a conference is approved by the executive board, the chairman and his closest advisors decide on the main objectives, which in the present case were: “to produce a high- level, attention-grabbing, perfectly crystallized scientific program in a pleasant venue at a reasonable cost.” Then the organizational procedure starts with the establishment of the scientific committee and the international advisory board, which proposes a list of topics and designate invited speakers. This is followed by contacts with potential sponsors, creation of a web site, setup of a local (working) team, visits to and negotiations with hotels and conference centers in different venues, compilation of a mailing list (in the present case, we created one containing about 3000 valid e-mails of “glass” researchers), open pre- registration to estimate the number of attendees, a decision about the vehicle to be used for publication of selected papers and negotiation with the editorial office, launch of the call for abstracts, and receipt and selection of abstracts for a preliminary version of the oral and poster programs. These programs must be constantly corrected and updated (in the present case we produced seven versions). Proposals then must be sent to potential sponsors, the registration fees estimated (a delicate matter), the potential conference attendees have to be kept informed about all the conference details – including Visa requirements - sound and video infrastructure must be rented; the opening ceremony, decoration, dinners and excursions must be organized; the call for (full) papers launched, and finally the book of abstracts, badges, banners, certificates, etc. must be prepared. We will show highlights of these activities and interesting statistics about the number of e-mails sent and received, abstracts submitted, cancellations, participation per country, etc. We will also summarize the scientific program. Although this “brute-force” method relies heavily on the intensive use of Internet facilities, it also requires some highly motivated people, from whom it demands considerable energy and dedication. However, in an analogy with thermodynamics – which always pushes point defects and dislocations in crystals – I have found that, regardless of the methods used, last minute cancellations are practically unavoidable. Hence, the resulting scientific program is like a real “crystal” – mostly organized but still containing defects –, and this chairman has learned once more that he can’t beat thermodynamics! I dedicate this opening talk to the pioneers who organized the previous ICG, and hope that it may be of some help to anyone who is naive enough to contemplate organizing future conferences. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to all the sponsors; the students, post- docs and colleagues at LaMaV (Vitreous Materials Lab – Federal University of São Carlos), especially professors Ana C.M. Rodrigues and Valmor Mastelaro - who submitted proposals to Fapesp and CNPq - and the members of the scientific committee and the international advisory board not only for lending their names – which has raised the prestige of this twin conference to a very high level – but also for their help and invaluable suggestions. Special thanks are due to Luciana Zanotto, Laurie Leonardo, Dr. José Martinelli, the ABIVIDRO team and the AD eventos team for the many hours we spent hashing out all the above listed details and several non-listed ones over the last 12 months. Last, but not least, I extend my deepest thanks to all the attendees; it is you, who have traveled from all the corners of the world, that have made this conference possible!

- XIV - Salvador, BA, Brazil – September 20-25, 2010 Weyl Award talk Recent advances in liquid and glassy dynamics

John C. Mauro Science and Technology Division, Corning Incorporated, Corning, NY 14831, USA [email protected]

The low temperature dynamics of ultraviscous liquids and glasses have posed an especial challenge from both experimental and theoretical perspectives, owing to the long dynamical time scales involved at and below the . Nevertheless, accurate modeling of these dynamics is of crucial technological importance for the glass industry, since precise knowledge of the temperature and thermal history dependence of viscosity is vital for glass composition research, glass manufacturing processes, and prediction of the aging/relaxation behavior of the final glass products. Unfortunately, existing models of liquid and glassy dynam- ics fail to capture essential details of either state. In this presentation, I revisit the problem of supercooled liquid and glassy dynamics from a fundamental physical perspective, employing temperature-dependent constraint theory and the energy landscape formalism to derive new models for both equilibrium liquid dynamics and the nonequilibrium dynamics of glass. Through comprehensive experimental validation using Corning glass compositions, I show that the new models offer significant improvements over previous approaches. In addition to the practical technological value of these models, there are also important physical implications, including: (a) clear evidence against the notion of a Kauzmann entropy catastrophe and dynamic diver- gence at finite temperature; (b) treatment of the glass transition as a continuous breakdown of ergodicity with an associated loss of configurational entropy; (c) the physical origin of liquid fragility as a tradeoff between enthalpic and entropic effects; (d) the relationship between liquid and glassy viscosities as governed by fragility; and (e) the universality of the fragile-to- strong transition as interpreted through topological constraint and energy landscape theories.

Keywords: Dynamics; viscosity, glass transition, relaxation, topology, configurational entropy, energy landscapes, modeling, nonequilibrium viscosity.

Invited and Oral Presentations

Sept. 21 – 14:00-16:00 h – Room A Structure (Chairman: J. Shackelford)

0364 | Statistical descriptors for glass structure James F. Shackelford University of California, Davis, CA 95616 USA, e-mail: [email protected] Various probability distribution functions (PDF) have been used to describe various structural features of glass. For example, the lognormal PDF has provided a good description of the distribution of interstitial site sizes in non-crystalline solids, both metallic and nonmetallic, using both experimental measurements and computer simulations. A normal (Gaussian) PDF has been found to be a good description of ring statistics of vitreous silica under a wide range of pressures, serving as a sensitive indicator of the onset of plastic deformation under high pressure. These and other distributions will be reviewed for the purpose of defining general statistical descriptors for glass structure. Keywords: vitreous, silica, descriptor.

0385 | Statistical description of glass network interconnectivity in calcium alumosilcate glasses Ralf Keding1*, Mette Moesgaard1, Jørgen Skibsted2, Yuanzeng Yue1 1Section of Chemistry, Aalborg University, DK-9000 Aalborg Denmark, e-mail: [email protected] 2Instrument Centre for Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy and Interdisciplinary Nanoscience Center (iNANO) Department of Chemistry, Aarhus University, DK-8000 AARHUS C, Denmark Two series of peralkaline glasses with a composition close to the eutectic compositons of anorthite- wollatsonite-gehlenite and amnorthite-wollasonite-tridymite were synthesized and investigated using 29Si and 27Al MAS-NMR. The structure of the glass is described by a network of SiO4/2 and AlO4/2- tetrahedrons 2+ – as network former and Ca ions as charge compensation for AlO4/2 or as network modifier. Beside the separation into bridging oxygen and non-bridging oxygen the 2. coordination sphere is described by a combinatorial statistic continuous random network or by a hierarchic random network. The description of the network is used to calculate the molar fraction of Si with different first (O) and second (Si or Al) coordination sphere. The ratio of the areas of the 29Si NMR resonances of the different coordinated Si specimens is assumed to be proportional to the molar fraction obtained from the structural models. The other parameters for the peaks attributed to different 29Si specimens is calculated by fitting the measured spectra. The quasi heterogeneous modeling approach with a hierarchy in the intermediate range order results in the best description of the NMR spectra while the intensities obtained from combinatorial statistic continuous random network do not result is a proper fit. This procedure of analysing common 29Si MAS-NMR gives hints, that the investigated Ca-alumosilicate glasses are best described by a quasi-heterogeneous intermediate range order. Keywords: hierarchic random network, Intermediate range order, 29Si MAS NMR, Calcium alumosilicate, peralcaline.

0117 | Static and dynamic volume fluctuations in silicate glass – MD study Ondrej Gedeon1*, Marek Liska2, Alexander Dubcek3 1*Institute of Chemical Technology, Technicka 5, CZ-166 28 Prague, Czech Republic, e-mail: [email protected] 2Vitrum Laugaricio – Joint Glass Center of Institute of Inorganic Chemistry SAS, 3University of Trencin and RONA Lednicke Rovne, Studentska 2, Trencin, Slovak Republic Potassium-silicate glass was prepared by molecular dynamics under three different regimes (cooling rates, simulating box sizes) to study their influence to temperature regimes of volume fluctuations. Partial volume fluctuations were introduced with help of Voronoi polyhedra tessellation. Dynamic and static fluctuations were suggested as a measure for time- and space-related fluctuations. The glass transition was preceded by the parting of the dynamic and static volume fluctuations. The glass transition was identified with the change of the temperature cause of the static fluctuations. The dynamic fluctuations changed their temperature regimes well below the glass transition and the transition temperature was identified with the change of the

mobility. Glass transition cages the atoms in similar surroundings and Voronoi polyhedra are definitely shaped well below the glass transition temperature. Anharmonic contribution was found to be present even at the lowest-temperature. Keywords: molecular dynamics, voronoi polyhedra, volume fluctuations.

0101 | Spectroscopic phenomenon of IR (0.7-2 μm) emission of post-transition elements in different glasses Evgeny F. Kustov1, Lenar I. Bulatov2, Vladislav V. Dvoyrin2, Valery M. Mashinsky2* 1Moscow Power Institute (Technical University) – Moscow, Russia 2Fiber Research Center, Russian Academy of Sciences – Moscow, Russia, e-mail: [email protected] Active centers (ACs) of post-transition elements (PTEs) (Bi, Sb, Pb, Sn, In, Te, etc.) together with surrounding atoms of glass form a new class of optical centers in which spectral transitions occur between PTE states of p electrons participating in chemical bonds with atoms of glass environment. The nature of various glasses (silicate, germanate, and other oxide ones) is reflected in spectral properties of PTEs which can serve as a probe for the research of glass network structure. This is based on the fitting of experimental optical spectra and theoretical spectra obtained by the developed method of simultaneous calculation of the energy of levels and the intensities of transitions between them. It has been found that for various PTEs and for different, both cations and anions glass networks, the absorption and luminescence spectra of PTE ACs are of the same type because they are not determined by PTE atomic states, but by molecular orbits of a complex formed by PTE atom and ligands from the first coordination sphere, which, in their turn, are under the influence of the structure of the second coordination sphere. Keywords: post-transition elements, active centers, spectra modeling, glass structure probe.

0269 | Structural analysis of bismuth zinc borate glasses using high energy x-ray diffraction and 11B MAS NMR measurements Yasuhiko Benino1*, Kenji Ida1, Shinichi Sakida2, Tokuro Nanba1 1*Graduate School of Environmental Science, Okayama University 2Environmental Management Center, Okayama University, Tsushima-naka 3-1-1, Okayama 700-8530, Japan, e-mail: [email protected] Heavy metal oxide containing glasses have been attracted our interest because of their low melting character, linear and nonlinear optical functions and crystallization behavior for designing and fabricating functional glass and glass-ceramic materials. These properties are closely related to the glass structure, e.g. coordination number of network forming cation, and structural analysis is an important approach for understanding structural details of the glasses for all the difficulties due to containing heavy elements. In the present paper, glass structure of ternary Bi2O3-ZnO-B2O3 glasses was investigated, in which the coordination number of Bi and B atoms were estimated by high energy X-ray diffraction and 11B MAS NMR measurements, respectively. For the glass series with constant ZnO contents, the fraction of 4-fold boron atoms, N4, showed convex curves, while the average number of oxygen atoms around a Bi atom, nBi-O, decreased continuously with increasing Bi2O3 content. Reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) simulations were successfully performed using constraints based on the experimental results, and the validity of structural units or groups found in the RMC glass model were discussed by comparing with those in conventional borate glasses. Keywords: glass structure, bismuth , coordination number, high energy X-ray diffraction, 11B MAS NMR, reverse Monte Carlo modeling.

0049 | Cation distribution in mixed-alkali phosphate glasses Jefferson Tscuchida1, José Schneider1*, Hellmut Eckert2 1*Instituto de Física de São Carlos, Universidade de São Paulo, São Carlos-SP, e-mail: [email protected] 2Institut für Physikalische Chemie, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Germany

The local order and distribution of alkali was analyzed in mixed-alkali metaphosphate glasses AxB1-xPO3, with A-B pairs Li-Rb, Na-Rb, Li-Na and Li-Cs, with the aim to identify segregation or random mixture of both cation species. These glasses exhibit some degree of mixed-alkali effect in dc conductivity and glass transition temperature. A broad set of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) techniques were applied: 31P, 23Na, 7Li and 133Cs high-resolution NMR, 23Na Triple-Quantum-MAS NMR, REDOR between 31P, 23Na, 7Li and

- 4 - Salvador, BA, Brazil – September 20-25, 2010 Invited and Oral Presentations

133Cs, 87Rb quadrupolar Carr-Purcel-Meiboom-Gill, and 23Na-NMR spin-echo decay. The structural picture emerging from these results reveals the similarity in local environments of each kind of alkali, irrespective of the substitution ratio, but also a common subtle structural adjustment: the compression of the oxygen environment around the smaller cation of the pair. The linear behavior observed for the chemical shift of alkalis indicates mixture of species at atomic scale. However, the 23Na-23Na magnetic coupling reveals that this mixing is not statistical, existing a detectable like-cation preference at short range. These structural properties are consistent with the so-called Random Ion Distribution Model, indicating that the origin of the mixed-alkali effect in the conductivity of these glasses may be explained by structurally blocked ion diffusion. Keywords: mixed-alkali effect, glass structure, phosphate glasses, nuclear magnetic resonance, 87Rb NMR.

0104 | Combination of advanced solid-state NMR and numerical simulation for the study of alteration Nina Forler, Lionel Montagne*, Laurent Delevoye, Grégory Tricot, Filipe Vasconcelos Université Lille Nord de France F-59000 Lille – France, Unité de Catalyse et de Chimie du Solide, UMR-CNRS 8181, USTL F-59652, e-mail: [email protected] Glasses need to be highly durable for practical applications. In the case of phosphate glasses, most applications require indeed high durability. However, other applications would need low durability glasses, e.g. for water treatment, resorbable biomaterials, soil nutrients. Hence, a better knowledge of phosphate glass alterations is important to improve their applicability. We used advanced NMR methods to obtain new information on the alteration mechanism of phosphate glasses. Their degradation by water is indeed closely related to the connectivity of their network, which can now be probed using homo- and heteronuclear correlation NMR methods. They were applied to simple binary glass compositions and also to aluminophosphate compositions. In a second step, we chose to monitor the glass alteration using 17O NMR in order to obtain complementary information. Using this isotope, we were able to label and to reveal the specific sites of attack by the 17O-enriched water molecules. As only part of the data was available for 17O NMR of hydroxylated phosphates, we prepared 17O labeled crystalline references of these compounds. In a complementary fashion, we performed ab-initio DFT calculations to confirm the measured values of the NMR parameters for these compounds. With this knowledge, we are now able to predict NMR parameters for unlabelled compounds. Finally, the simulation of 17O MQ-NMR spectra enabled to obtain quantitative data and to evaluate the kinetics of alteration. Keywords: glass, phosphate, alteration, NMR, DFT.

0312 | Application of atmospheric microwave plasma to glass surface analysis, surface conditioning and coating Monika Willert-Porada*, Zahra Negahdari, Zeljko Pajkic, Andreas Rosin, Daniel Leykam, Thorsten Gerdes Universität Bayreuth, Lehrstuhl für Werkstoffverarbeitung, 95440 Bayreuth Atmospheric pressure microwave plasma is a versatile tool for surface analysis as well as for coating of glass. When glass surfaces are subjected to microwave plasma, a “fingerprint” of volatile oxides is obtained. The composition of the volatile materials is analyzed with the help of optical emission spectroscopy, OES. Significant differences are found when our new, atmospheric microwave induced plasma method AMIP-OES is compared with LIPS, Laser Induced Plasma Spectroscopy. In the paper the set-up developed for the AMIP- OES is described and OES analysis results for different glasses are presented along with a discussion on the influence of substrate temperature and total gas pressure on the AMIP-OES signals. In the second part of the paper, utilisation of atmospheric microwave plasma for glass processing will be presented. One example will be an atmospheric chemical vapor deposition process (APCVD), again with application of OES as a tool to monitor the progress of the glass coating process. In addition, the role of the microwave plasma for conditioning of the glass surface in air and in nitrogen as well as for reduction of the precursor deposition temperature and for an increase of deposition rates will be discussed.

Sept. 21 – 14:00-16:00 h – Room B Non-oxide & sol-gel (Chairwoman: K. Richardson)

INVITED SPEAKER 0116 | Luminescence and amplified stimulated emission in quantum dot doped sol-gel waveguides Alessandro Martucci1*, Paul Mulvaney2 1Università di Padova, Dipartimento di Ingegneria Meccanica Settore Materiali, Italy 2University of Melbourne, Chemistry School & Bio21, Australia

Highly luminescent waveguides have been obtained by doping different kind of sol-gel films (ZrO2-SiO2 hybrid organic-inorganic, TiO2 and ZrO2) with semiconductor quantum dots (CdSe, CdSe@CdS and CdSe@ ZnS). The nanoparticles have been prepared separately by colloidal chemistry and than mixed with the sol-gel matrix solution after surface ligand exchange. The influence of the different sol-gel matrix on the active optical properties have been studied. Titania based composites were seen to be inherently photo-unstable due to photoelectron injection into the bulk matrix and subsequent nanocrystals oxidation. In comparison, zirconia composites were significantly more robust with high photoluminescence retained for temperatures up to 300 °C. Both titania and zirconia composite waveguides exhibited amplified stimulated emission (ASE) with one-photon optical pumping, however only zirconia based waveguides exhibited long term photostability (loss of less than 30% ASE intensity after more than 40 minutes continuous excitation). These waveguides showed also ASE with two-photon infrared optical pumping. We conclude that the low electron affinity of zirconia and its inherent high refractive index makes it an ideal candidate for nanocrystals based optical waveguides. Keywords: sol-gel, quantum dots, waveguides, photoluminescence, amplified stimulated emission, nanoparticles.

0356 | Writing of lithium niobate patterns on sol-gel

derived Li2O-Nb2O5-SiO2 film surface by laser irradiation Tsuyoshi Honma*, Takayuki Komatsu Department of and Technology – Nagaoka University of Technology, Japan, e-mail: [email protected]

Laser writing of lithium niobate (LiNbO3) crystal was fabricated on the amorphous thin film surface of sol- gel derived Li2O-Nb2O5-SiO2. At first, to make heater layer that absorb laser light and convert thermal energy, transition metal ion doped silica film was coated on fused silica substrate by dip coat method. After annealing

Li2O-Nb2O5-SiO2 amorphous layer was fabricated by lithium niobium silicon ethoxide solution coating and annealing process. By irradiation of ytterbium fiber laser (l = 1080 nm), laser focal point was crystallized immediately. By means of micro Raman spectroscopy, it is cleared that laser induced point consists of LiNbO3 single phase. Comparing with laser-induced crystallization in bulk Li2O-Nb2O5-SiO2 glass we also discussed about crystal orientation and second harmonic generations. Keywords: lithium niobate, laser irradiation, crystallization, micro Raman spectroscopy.

0128 | Structural chemistry of meso-macroporous functional hexagonal tungsten oxide based electrochromic (EC) devices Yahia Djaoued1*, Subramanian Balaji1, Ralf Brüning2 1Laboratoire de Micro-spectroscopies Raman et FTIR, Université de Moncton – Campus de Shippagan, 218, boul. J.-D. Gauthier, Shippagan, New-Brunswick, E8S 1P6, Canada, e-mail: [email protected] 2Physics Department, Mount Allison University, Sackville, NB, E4L 1E4, Canada

Tungsten oxide exists in 3 types of crystal structures: i) ReO3 type, ii) metastable hexagonal WO3 (h-WO3), and iii) pyrochlore structures. h-WO3 has a very interesting structure, as it can accommodate more Li ions when compared with the ReO3 type WO3 structures. This feature of h-WO3 has generated lot of interest in their synthesis for applications as host in lithium ion (Li+) batteries. But not many studies have demonstrated their applicability in the construction of an EC device. Hence we developed a method to synthesis transparent, crack-free, meso-macroporous h-WO3 films up to ~850 nm with a single dipping. Also we have constructed EC + devices using thus prepared films. As of today, Li intercalation mechanism in the h-WO3 has been proposed based on the electrochemical methods and XRD. Although, electrochemical methods quantify the amount of

Li inserted, and XRD reveals the corresponding lattice parameter changes in the h-WO3, both techniques falls

short of explaining the Li+ insertion sites in the hexagonal framework. In order to overcome this obstacle, we + employed Raman and XRD to study h-WO3 and the structural changes observed due to the Li insertion. This work has provided a new insight into the ion intercalation mechanism into the h-WO3 structure, and a first + hand experimental evidence for the Li occupancy of square windows in the h-WO3 structure. We proved that + the coloration process in the EC device based h-WO3 is mainly due to Li that occupy hexagonal and square windows sites of the h-WO3. This study will potentially influence the characterization methods that have been conventionally used to study the Li ion host materials for so many applications as it provides a quick and reliable signature of the structural modifications occurring in the ion host materials. Keywords: meso-macroporous hexagonal tungsten oxide, electrochromic device, lithium intercalation, micro-raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, coloration in hexagonal tungsten oxide.

0058 | Progress on the fabrication of on-chip, integrated (ChG)-based sensors Kathleen Richardson1*, Laeticia Petit1, Nathan Carlie1, Bodgan Zdyrko1, Igor Luzinov1, Juejun Hu1, Anu Agarwal1, Lionel Kimerling1, Troy Anderson1, Martin Richardson1 1*Clemson University, School of Materials Science and Engineering/COMSET, e-mail: [email protected] 2Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Microphotonics Lab 3University of Central Florida, College of Optics/CREOL/FPCE To address the issues of existing chemical sensor technologies, including high cost; large footprint; and low sensitivity, we review ongoing progress on the material design, fabrication and performance of chalcogenide glass resonators utilizing cavity-enhancement for high sensitivity MIR chemical sensing. Ultra-high-Q optical resonance enables sensitive detection of even tiny optical property perturbations (optical absorption and/or refractive index change) in the environment of the sensors; allowing improvement of detection limits by an order of magnitude over commercial surface plasmonic resonance sensors. The use of CMOS-compatible fabrication techniques and incorporation of microfluidcs for analyte delivery, offer a solution which is highly robust. We report the results of our recent efforts to optimize device optical performance through glass chemistry selection and deposition process optimization, as well as enhancement of structure selectivity to fluid- and vapor-based chemical species via composition tailoring of polymer cladding layers, The results of recent efforts to translate NIR performance to MIR platform/device geometries are discussed. Keywords: Chalcogenide glass, infrared, lithography, microfluidics, sensors.

0390 | Effect of CdS in bulk GeS2-Ga2S3-CdS chalcogenide glasses to third-order nonlinear optical properties by Z-scan method Xuan He, Qiming Liu*, Xiujian Zhao Key Laboratory of Silicate Materials Science and Engneering (Wuhan University of Technology), Ministry of Education, Wuhan, Hubei 430070, e-mail: [email protected]

The third-order optical nonlinearity of GeS2-Ga2S3-CdS chalcogenide glasses was inverstigated using the Z-scan technique. The results indicated that the addition of CdS in the glass has obviously impact on the value of the third-order nonlinear susceptibility. The largest third-order nonlinear susceptibility of the glass containing 15% CdS (in mol) has been obtained as 9.17×10-13 esu. The third-order nonlinear response was dominantly due to the distortion of electron clouds in the samples. Keywords: chalcogenide glasses, third-order nonlinearity, Z-scan.

0352 | Low-temperature extrusion molding of oxygen-free fluoride glasses Peter B. Baskov*, Vadim A. Perezhilin, Vyacheslav V. Sakharov, Valentin V. Shatalov Scientific – Research Institute of Chemical Technology Fluoride glasses’ tendency to crystallization seriously limits opportunities of casting methods for efficient fabrication of glass ware with high optical and operational properties. The alternative of fluoride glasses production is low-temperature glass formation by extrusion molding. High pressure ensures the process at temperatures of the lower border of area (near to vitrification temperatures Tg), far from dangerous Tamman zones of crystals’ nucleation and growth. Low-temperature processes of viscous flow of fluorozirconate, fluorohafnate and fluoroaluminate glasses have been studied. The two-level nano-inhomogeneous structure of extruded fluoride glasses was established – the bottom level 2-8 nm and the top one 30-150 nm. The technology of forced cold molding at high pressures (FCMP) was used for fabrication of thin (1-4 mm) long (0.5-1 m) rods with the polished

external surface, two-layer performs and other products. Optical losses in a wide spectral range – from UV up to middle IR areas – are less than 0.2-0.5 dB/m. Implementation of FCMP deformation processes in vacuum provides minimal content of O2- and OH- in glasses, and also prevents the processes of nano- and microcrystallization. Profiled glasses produced by FCMP method expand the nomenclature of optical elements for lens optics, laser and measuring optics for UV-IR range. Low-temperature extrusion procedures, such as FCMP, certainly increase the possibility of practical use of some other easily crystallized glasses with remarkable but not realizable at present properties. Keywords: , ware, molding at vitrification temperature.

0063 | The square-well model in mean spherical approximation as a reference system in variational calculations Nikolay E. Dubinin1*, Vladimir V. Filippov2 1*Institute of Metallurgyof theUral Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences Amundsen 101,Ekaterinburg-RUS, e-mail: [email protected] 2Ekaterinburg High ArtillerySchool – Shcherbakov 145, Ekaterinburg-RUS The variational method is widely used for thermodynamic calculations of liquid and amorphous metals. Recently, the square-well model (SW) was suggested as a reference system in the thermodynamic variational calculations for simple liquid metals for the first time [1]. It was found that the SW-variational procedure gives a lower upper bound of the Helmholtz free energy than the hard-sphere-variational procedure. In [1] the SW system is taken within the random phase approximation (RPA). It is a shortcoming of the work [1] since the SW-RPA solution leads to unphysical behavior of the structure factor at some sets of the SW parameters. Progress in this area of investigations can be achieved by using more accurate theories of liquids than the RPA, such as the mean spherical approximation (MSA). Here, we apply the SW-MSA reference system. The semi-analytical solution of the SW obtained in the MSA [2, 3] is used. Thermodynamics and structure of pure liquid alkali metals are studied. The local Animalu- Heine model pseudopotential, the Vashishta-Singwi exchange-correlation function, and the Nozieres-Pines exchange-correlation energy are taken for the calculations. This work is supported by the grant 08-03-00992 of RFBR and the grant 02.740.11.0152 of Russia Science. 1. N.E. Dubinin et al., J. Non-Equilibr. Therm., in print (2010). 2. N.E. Dubinin et al., J.

INVITED 0465 | The future of glass education SPEAKER John M. Parker Departament of Engineering Materials, University of Sheffield, Hadfield Building, Mappin St., Sheffield, S1 3JD, UK, e-mail: [email protected] The earlier part of the last century saw the rapid growth of universities and technical schools offering courses in glass science and technology. More recently in the developed world the demand from industry for glass technologists has declined, and other engineering/scientific skills have been perceived as more important. This paper will examine some of the actual and potential responses of our community to such pressures, with the goal of ensuring that our knowledge base is maintained and indeed that we can continue to be a hothouse for new developments. Various ways of cementing the links between industry, professional societies and academia have been tried in the UK and elsewhere; the effectiveness of key examples of such approaches will be analysed. Finally some recent developments such as the ICG Summer Schools, now in their second year and ICG roadmapping exercises will be outlined. Keywords: education, ICG, workshops, road maps.

0493 | Glass education without boundaries William R Heffner1, Himanshu Jain1, Carlo G. Pantano2* 1Lehigh University and 2Penn State University, Pennsylvania, USA 2NSF International Materials Institute on New Functionality in Glasses One of the missions of the NSF International Materials Institute on New Functionality in Glasses is to promote and facilitate glass education for K-12, undergraduate and graduate students in science and engineering, glass engineers and scientists, and the general public. With a goal of making information on glass available freely to anyone, anywhere with access to the Internet, a collection of 180 videos has been produced. These video lectures were generated through a variety of Invited Lectures, International Conferences, Workshops and Schools. A series of demonstrations using ‘candy glass’ is also developed to engage young students in the science, engineering and applications of glass through familiar materials, with a hands-on focus, real-science experience, and within the resources of a typical public school. Precollege teachers have expressed strong interest in adopting these curricular demonstrations for enhancing the learning of chemistry and physics. To help draw undergraduates into the field of glass, an international contest was held to generate ideas for new glass products and technologies that could be enabled by the development of stronger glass. Also underway is a novel concept of cooperative International multi institution team teaching-learning (MITT) at the graduate level whereby advanced topics of glass science are taught over the Internet by pooling faculty expertise at several universities to teach students at other universities. Finally, glass science is introduced to the general public via three unusual programs: ‘Pennsylvania Glass Trail’, ‘New Glass Technology for Artists’, and various group events at the local science museum – ‘Da Vinci Science Center’. Selected programs and outcomes will be described with the goal of expanding our International glass education and research network.

0386 | Brazilian ceramic society’s glass school Mauro Akerman1*, Samuel M. Toffoli2 1Consultor Independente 2 Universidadel de São Paulo – USP, São Paulo – SP Brazil is a continental country and exhibits a large glass manufacturing sector. ABIVIDRO (Brazilian Technical Association of the Automated Glass Producers) congregates 16 associates, among domestic and international companies, representing, in 2008, almost 2.3 billion USD, and 12000 direct jobs. In Brazil, there is no formal training of technicians or engineers with a solid background in glass technology. Because of that, the larger industries usually train their own technical people, whereas the smaller size companies have difficulties in putting together adequately formed teams. One of the basic missions of the Brazilian Ceramic Society (ABC) is to offer technical training and information exchange. Therefore, to fill the workforce gap, ABC started, in 2009, a short-term training program entitled “Glass School”, inviting specialists formed within the factories, academic people, and independent consultants, as well as suppliers of materials, equipments, and

The “Glass School” offered 3 different courses in 2009, repeating them (and adding 3 more) in 2010, focusing their programs on the most relevant points for the glass manufacturing process, what covers since the basic scientific contents to much more technological issues, like furnace operation, for example. This paper presents and discusses the structure, contents, and results of the first year of existence of the “ABC’s Glass School”. Keywords: glass school, training, glass technology.

INVITED 0496 | Structural Role of Nucleating Elements (Zr, Ti and Ni) SPEAKER During Glass Nucleation: Influence on Physical Properties Laurent Cormier*, Olivier Dargaud, Nicolas Menguy, Aymeric Dugué, Marie Guignard, Laurence Galoisy, Georges Calas Institut de Minéralogie et de Physique des Milieux Condensés, Universités Paris 6 et 7, IPGP and CNRS, 140 Rue de Lourmel, 75015 Paris, France; [email protected] Glass–ceramics are commonly made by forming glasses and applying a controlled heat treatment, to cause crystalline nucleation in the glassy matrix. Zirconium, titanium or nickel may act as an efficient nucleating agent, which promotes controlled bulk nucleation. We present a review of some recent results obtained on the structural modifications induced by the introduction of ZrO2, TiO2 or NiO in MgO–Al2O3–SiO2 glasses and their changes during nucleation. Original information on the local structure of the pristine glasses has been obtained by a combination of X-ray and neutron wide-angle scattering coupled to Reverse Monte Carlo simulations, EXAFS and XANES spectroscopy, providing detailed structural information on the initial glass at atom-level details. They show unusual coordination and/or site sharing of the nucleating agents and structural

fluctuations characteristic of the medium range structure of the pristine glass. These fluctuations may play a major role in the nucleation process, by minimizing the energy barrier of the glass to crystal transformation. The formation of crystallites has been observed with Transmission Electron Microscopy, and in-situ XRD has also been used to monitor the kinetics of appearance of crystals in Zr-bearing glasses. Eventually, the change in the coloring role of Ni during the nucleation process has been investigated by diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. All thesse data show that original processes at short and medium range scales govern the glass-to crystal transformation, in the pristine glass as well as during crystalline nucleation. Keywords: glass structure, glass nucleation, structure/property relationships, EXAFS, XANES, transmission electron microscopy, optical absorption spectroscopy

However, it is still a great challenge to develop a new atomic modeling technique that enables investigation of the crystallization process. A major obstacle is that it is very difficult to crystallize glass materials through quenching by ordinary molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo methods except the crystallization of very simple structures. To overcome this problem new techniques for investigating crystallization process are developed and applied to silica and silicate glasses in this study. First, homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation is discussed in terms of the sequentially irreversible change of atomic structures. Next, cooperative atomic motions and their structural orderings are interpreted in terms of thermodynamics, that is, focused on the change of internal energy and entropy. Finally, the future prospect of atomic modeling of crystallization is discussed. Keywords: glass structure, crystallization, computer simulation, silica glass, silicate glass.

Consequently, during glass melt cooling, they may induce liquid-liquid phase separation and crystallization of apatite Ca2Nd8(SiO4)6O2 and powellite CaMoO4 phases that may lead to a modification of the expected glassy matrix properties (chemical durability, self-irradiation resistance…). This work is an attempt to rely glass structure and crystallization tendency, by studying, for a simplified aluminoborosilicate glass belonging to the system SiO2-Na2O-CaO-Al2O3-B2O3, the effect of neodymium

(from 0 to 16 wt% Nd2O3) and molybdenum (from 0 to 7 wt% MoO3) addition on the competition between the crystallization of apatite and powellite (both phases contain calcium and powellite can incorporate neodymium). In this paper, we present the main results, on one hand on the crystallization tendency of this glass, obtained by XRD (at room temperature and at high temperature) and SEM, after two kinds of thermal treatments: a controlled cooling from the melt and a thermal treatment of nucleation and growth. On the other hand, the structure of the same samples before and after crystallization is studied by Raman and neodymium optical spectroscopies.

The chemical complexity of these multicomponent glasses has to be taken into account in order to get an appropriate understanding of the crystallization properties. In this work we studied the structure of a SiO2-B2O3-Al2O3-Na2O-CaO-ZrO2-

RE2O3 glass derived from a new nuclear glass composition (RE2O3 with RE = Nd or La is taken as a structural simulant of minor actinides and lanthanides from the wastes), by using a multispectroscopic approach on systematic glass series with a varying chemical parameter. For instance, the RE2O3 content, the Na2O/Al2O3 ratio, the Na2O/CaO ratio and the B2O3 contents were varied in order to get insight into the structural role of the RE ions, the distribution of Na+ ions and charge compensation mechanisms in the glass. MAS NMR 11B, 29Si, 27Al and 23Na spectroscopy as well as Raman and Nd LIII- or K-edge EXAFS were the complementary structural tools. The crystallization tendency of the glasses was systematically assessed by the mean of a slow cooling from the melt followed by XRD, TEM or SEM and correlation with structural features can be drawn.

Schmelzer1*, Ivan Gutzow2 1Institute of Physics, University of Rostock, 18051 Rostock, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] 2Institute of Physical Chemistry, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Sofia 1113, Bulgaria Crystallization processes in glass-forming melts occur most frequently in a range of temperature and pressure overlapping the glass transition interval. Here the characteristic times of change of the external parameters are of the same order of magnitude as the relaxation times of the glass-forming melts. In this range of thermodynamic control parameters, employing the thermodynamics of irreversible processes, additional structural order parameters like fictive temperature and fictive pressure have to be introduced into the description. These parameters describe the current structure of the melt and, in this way, its effect on crystallization. In the present contribution, first, a general thermodynamic definition of fictive pressure and fictive temperature is presented. Second, an explanation of relaxation behavior proportional to the square root of time and the origin of the Kohlrausch relaxation law is developed. Finally, it is discussed how differences in the structure of the glass-forming melt – described by a set of structural order parameters –

may affect crystallization processes via their effect on the thermodynamic (bulk and surface) properties (both of the ambient and newly evolving crystal phases) and the kinetic parameters (like relaxation times, diffusion coefficients or viscosity) of the glass-forming melt.

INVITED SPEAKER 0311 | The environment of transition elements in oxide glasses Laurence Galoisy*, Georges Calas, Laurent Cormier Institut de Minéralogie et de Physique des Milieux Condensés (IMPMC), Université Paris VI and Paris VII, IPGP and IRD, 140 rue de lourmel 75015 Paris, FRANCE The compositional dependence of the glass coloration and the local environment of transition elements is followed using various spectroscopic techniques. Ni, Zn, Zr and Mo, present a good illustration of the diversity of local structures in oxide glasses. The coordination numbers of transition elements in glasses are often lower than those in crystalline compounds. 4-fold sites correspond to a network-forming position in Ni and Zn, but also indicate the presence of polyanions, structurally independent of the network. The charge compensation of the tetrahedral cation by alkalis and/or alkaline-earths is important for rationalizing glass stability. Original 5-fold site for Ni, may explain the origin of the peculiar coloration of most Ni-bearing glasses. 6-fold site may be encountered in some compositions, in relation with the presence of B. Ni-bearing, low-alkali borate and borosilicate glasses exhibit colors ranging from green to yellow, related to the presence distorted [6]Ni, indicating the presence of defective NiO clusters. Zr, is generally encountered in regular octahedra, an unusual coordination seldom encountered in anhydrous minerals. A molecular scale approach helps understand the origin of the peculiar physicochemical properties provided by the presence of Zr in glasses, e.g. the resistance to alteration or the formation of glass ceramics.

The key factor lies in constructing a bridge between microscopically estimated atomic configurations and macroscopically observed properties. Each property of interest has to be analyzed with its own proper recipe for simulation techniques. In this paper a variety of properties such as thermal, transport, spectroscopic, thermodynamic, and optical properties are estimated based on simulated structure in silica glass, silicate glass or B2O3 glass employing various simulation techniques. Finally, the future prospect of structure-property relationship by numerical simulation is discussed.

0415 | Structural role of Zr as a nucleating agent in silicate glasses Olivier Dargaud1,2*, Laurent Cormier1, Laurence Galoisy1, Nicolas Menguy1, Georges Calas1, Cécile Jousseaume2, Gilles Querel3 1Insitut de Minéralogie et de physisque de la Matière Condensée, 140 Rue De Lourmel, Paris 75015, France, e-mail: [email protected] 2Saint-Gobain Recherche, 39 Quai Lucien Lefranc, Aubervillier 93303, France 3Saint-Gobain Northboro Research and Development Centre, Goddard Road, Northborough 01532-512 MA, USA

The nucleation control of a glass matrix is mainly achieved using nucleating agents such as ZrO2 or

TiO2, that precipitates promptly upon heating. From a fundamental point of view nucleation is still poorly described by theory [1] and little is known about the evolution of the structural environment of the nucleating elements in the parent glass and its modification during nucleation. A major property of Zr is that it adopts a peculiar coordination of 7-fold in MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 glasses [2] by contrast to alkali glasses in which it occurs in a regular 6-fold coordination [3]. The peculiar organization around Zr relative to Zr and Si next nearest neighbors explains the role of this element as a precursor of further structural transformations leading to crystal nucleation [4].

The local structure of Zr will be analysed in various glasses of general composition XnO-Al2O3-SiO2 and

YnO-Al2O3-SiO2, where X is Li or Na and Y, Mg, Zn or Ca. Structural properties are obtained using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at both Zr-K and -L edges. They will be compared to the nucleating ability of Zr in each system and more generally to the thermal evolution of the glass followed by high performance DSC. Establishing structure-property relationships will help in the prediction of the nucleating role of Zr in new matrices. 1. Fokin, et al. JNCS, 352, p. 2686, 2006 2. Dargaud, et al. J. Am. Ceram.

0191 | Network topology and diffusion in soda lime borate glass systems Morten M. Smedskjaer1*, John C. Mauro2, Sabyasachi Sen3, Yuanzheng Yue1 1*Section of Chemistry, Aalborg University, Denmark, e-mail: [email protected] 2Science and Technology Division, Corning Incorporated, Corning, NY 14831, USA 3Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, University of California at Davis, Davis, USA In this paper, we have investigated the structure, transport properties, and network topology of the borate glass series (in mol%): (89-x)B2O3 − xNa2O − 10CaO − 1Fe2O3 with x = 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35. By using a temperature-dependent topological constraint model, we have predicted the scaling of the glass transition temperature, fragility, and boron speciation with composition (x). Experimental results are in good agreement with the predicted ones, and this provides insights into the correlation between the glassy dynamics and the structure of soda lime borate glasses. Through this correlation, we attempt to clarify the origin of the correlation between the inward cationic diffusion and the glass composition. The inward cationic diffusion is induced by reducing ferric ions to ferrous ions in the glasses near the glass transition temperature. The extent of inward diffusion varies with composition and this variation depends on the boron speciation and the electrostatic environments of the involved modifying ions. This work also provides information on the microstructural origin of fragility of oxide liquids. Keywords: borate glasses, diffusion, network topology, topological constraint model, boron speciation, fragility, glass transition.

Direct investigations are difficult due to the considered temperature range (1000-1400 °C). For Raman scattering the main problem is thermal emission, which masks the vibrational information.

temperature was then obtained, for temperatures from 1400 °C down to 1100 °C, during relatively long times (some days for the lowest temperatures). A continuous monitoring of the Raman spectrum was done (1spectrum/minute). The great number of collected spectra gives a very good statistics, allowing to display the smooth structural changes due to relaxation and change of fictive temperature, and to measure the relaxation times. These relaxation times are somewhat longer than expected through existing models or estimations. Besides this, new detailed room-temperature Raman measurements on silica will be reported, which could help to a better understanding of the low-frequency dynamics. Keywords: raman, silica, relaxation, high temperature.

In this study, we are interested in heavy binary alkali glasses, Rb2O-SiO2 and Cs2O-SiO2, for a better understanding of the specificities of the heavy cations on the silicate network.

Twenty compositions R2O-SiO2 (R = Cs, Rb) between 5 and 36 % have been elaborated and analyzed by Raman and Brillouin spectroscopies. The hygroscopic character of the high alkali compositions needs some precautions but does not preclude vibrational studies. The Raman spectra deconvolutions show some specific features for these glasses. At low wavenumbers, a Voigt function must be added in the spectral range of the boson peak region in cesium glasses, and two such Voigt functions for rubidium glasses, denoting some localized vibrations of heavy ions in their oxygen surrounding. This has still not been observed in other binary alkali glasses of silicates. In the immediately -1 subsequent spectral range (50-650 cm ) dominated by SiO4 bending modes, the ratio of Cs over Rb Raman spectra is practically wavenumber-independent for x compositions lower than 10% : this shows that then the silicate networks and the connections between tetrahedral are practically identical in Cs and Rb glasses. Besides this, more macroscopic investigations have been undertaken by Brillouin scattering, to probe the elastic properties of these glasses from room temperature up to the Tg range. We have observed relaxation phenomena in the glasses blow the glass transition. Keywords: raman, billouin, relaxation.

The optical properties at ambient conditions have been largely investigated when compared to their features at elevated temperatures. In emissivity measurements, high-precision spectrometers and the accurate knowledge of the surface temperature are some of the key aspects to be taken into account when developing such challenging experiments. We have performed reliable in-situ emissivity measurements using a home-made apparatus composed of two spectrometers, a black-body reference and a CO2 laser as the heat source. The laser ensures a homogeneous heating and melt stability up to 1500 °C during the data acquisition while maintaining a relatively cold environment. The optical complex functions of the studied compositions were obtained from 25 to 20000 cm–1 by applying a dielectric function model [1]. All emissivity spectra were compared to the ones at ambient temperature obtained by the indirect method using the reflectivity and transmission data. In this context we carefully analyze the role of glass composition on the vibration of internal and external modes and the emissivity properties. Structural dynamics with temperature and vibrations due to remaining water bonded molecules are reported. 1. De Sousa Meneses, M. Malki and P. Echegut, J. Non-Cryst. Solids 352, 769 (2006).

0313 | Spectroscopy of chromium in oxide glasses: local structure, redox states and thermal expansion Georges Calas*, Laurence Galoisy, Laurent Cormier, Odile Majerus Institut de Minéralogie et de Physique des Milieux Condensés, Universités Paris 6 et 7, IPGP and CNRS 140 Rue de Lourmel, 75015 Paris, France, e-mail: [email protected] We present a comparative spectroscopic study of chromium in oxide glasses, using EXAFS, XANES and optical absorption spectroscopy. Coexisting octahedral Cr3+ and chromate groups may be detected by XANES and optical absorption data. In all investigated glasses, EXAFS and optical absorption spectra indicate that Cr3+ is located in preferential environments, as shown in borosilicate or mixed alkali/alkaline earth glasses. High temperature crystal field spectra have been obtained in the range 10-800K. In all glasses, the Cr3+ crystal field band exhibits a red shift with increasing temperature, and the glass color is modified consequently. This implies a modification in the relative position of the Fano antiresonances located on this crystal field band. Optical absorption spectra are strongly sensitive to temperature effects, even over small temperature intervals. Crystal field splitting energy as well as red shift amplitude are not the same for the different glasses investigated. Using the dependence of crystal field splitting energy on cation-oxygen distances, local thermal expansion coefficients (TEC) can be extracted from these spectroscopic in-situ measurements. Local TEC values obtained in glasses are lower than bulk TEC’s, and are similar to those observed for octahedral Cr3+ in crystals. These local TEC’s vary by as much as 50% as a function of glass composition, the local and bulk TEC’s varying in a similar way. Keywords: structure/property relationships, glass structure, glass coloration, redox states, EXAFS, XANES, optical absorption spectroscopy.

INVITED 0037 | Theory of vibrational excitations in glass SPEAKER Walter Schirmacher Institut für Physik, Universität Mainz, D-55099 Mainz, Germany Physik-Department E13, Technische Unviersität München, D-85747 Garching, Germany A theoretical description of vibrational excitations in disordered solids, especially glassy materials is presented. It is based on a generalization of elasticity theory allowing for spatially fluctuating elastic constants (elastic disorder). The enhancement of the spectrum in comparison with the Debye theory, which is observed in many glasses in the THz regime (boson peak) is explained as a consequence of the elastic disorder. This anomaly marks the lower frequency boundary of a frequency band in which random-matrix-type excitations prevail. Explicit expressions are given for the inelastic neutron- X-ray and Raman spectra. The theory can be used as a means to reconcile the anomalous spectra obtained with different spectroscopic methods. Explicit model calculations are in good agreement with experiments. Keywords: boson peak, vibrational anomalies, neutron scattering, X-ray scattering, raman scattering.

However, only few investigations have explored the evolution of the vibrational features of simple alkali glasses or silica under compression. In this contribution, we will present a detailed mode analysis of two simple (Li/Na) alkali glass models as well as for silica glass models obtained by combined classical and Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics. In particular we will discuss how the presence of the network modifier influences the relevant vibrational parameters: positions, shapes and intensities of the main peaks in the vibrational density of states (VDOS) and IR spectra. We will also show the decomposition of the VDOS on symmetry-adapted modes of the basic structural units of our models networks: SiO4 tetrahedra and SiOSi bridges. The same analysis will be carried out in the case of few silica glass models at normal density as well as at higher density. Keywords: alkali silicate glass, vibrations, Molecular dynamics, DFT.

The density of vibrational states (DOS) was measured using a diamond anvil cell. The DOS of a crystalline counterpart of the glass was measured at ambient conditions. The increase of pressure causes a shift of the boson peak to higher energy and a decrease of its height. The reduced DOS of the crystalline phase shows a peak at yet higher energy and with still lower height. Ab-initio calculations show that this peak arises from the van Hove singularity of a transverse acoustic (TA) branch. The changes in elastic medium of the glass with pressure were characterized by the pressure dependence of Debye energy. When the DOS data are plotted in Debye energy units, the boson peak of the glass matches the energy and the height of the TA singularity of the crystalline phase. Furthermore, it has the same absolute number of vibrational states. The results suggest that the boson peak originates from flattening of the TA modes in glasses around the pseudo-Brillouin zone boundary. Keywords: glass dynamics, density of states, boson peak.

polyamorphic transformation owing to reorientations of the --Si--O--Si-- bonds forming the ring structures, this without bond breaking or reconstruction. It is conceivable that a measure of the degree of transformation can be found in a suitably determined elastic modulus. Recent quantitative analysis of the elastic properties of silica has allowed extracting bare velocities. It is found that unrelaxed moduli increase considerably with temperature. The unrelaxed bulk modulus should provide a measure of the average rigidity of the structure at short distances. We show that indeed the boson peak of silica, which is a strong function of the temperature, successfully scales unto a single master curve with the use of unrelaxed bulk modulus, this with exponents that are non-trivial. Conversely, the scaling largely fails when plotted in Debye units. Keywords: low frequency vibrations, boson peak.

0345 | Infrared spectroscopy by emission measurement to investigate structure and dynamics of glasses Domingos De Sousa Meneses1,2, Cristiane Nascimento Santos1, Leire Del Campo1, Patrick Echegut1,* 1CNRS, UPR3079 CEMHTI, 1D Avenue de la Recherche Scientifique, 45071 Orléans cedex 2, France 2Université d’Orléans, Polytech’Orléans, Avenue du Parc Floral, BP 6749, 45067 Orléans cedex 2, France, e-mail: [email protected] The temperature dependence of the infrared spectra of some silica and silicate glasses is reported up to high temperature over the solid state and above the glass transition in the melt state. It is not so trivial to record reflectivity or transmissivity of samples at high temperature and particularly in a quasi liquid state. In our laboratory, this is possible within a homemade device coupling two Bruker spectrometers working from far infrared to visible ranges. The experimental method is based on the spectral emissivity measurement of CO2 power laser heated glass samples. From around 500 to 2500 K, measurements were performed by using a so called direct method consisting in the comparison of the flux emitted by the heated sample to those of a black body reference. Following Kirchhoff’s law, the spectral emissivity of semi-transparent compounds is the combination of reflection and transmission spectra so it is another way to reach the dielectric function. The analysis of the recorded spectra is obtained from their best fits with the appropriate dielectric function model. The retrieval of the optical functions on a very wide range of temperature allows to probe in a quantitative way several changes of the glass structure and dynamics related to the stretching motion of the SiO4 tetrahedra. Keywords: silica, infrared spectroscopy, emissivity, optical function, high temperature, glass transition.

Hyper-Raman scattering (HRS) is a non-linear optic process in which two incident photons of frequency wi scatter a photon of frequency ws after interaction with a vibrational excitation σ of frequency ws = ws – 2wi in the media. The main interest of HRS is that the selection rules are different from those of Raman and Infrared absorption. The Hyper-Raman spectroscopy of various silicate and borate glasses has been performed. The selection rule analysis is based on a simple structural model considering a randomly connected network of well defined elementary structural units (ESUs). In silica the ESUs are the SiO4 tetrahedra while in borate glasses those are the BO3 triangles, the B3O3 rings, and the BO4 tetrahedra. The results show that the main HRS spectral components can be assigned to internal vibrations of ESUs, except for the boson peak which is associated to –quasi local- librations of rigid structural units, that is external-like motions. Keywords: hyper Raman, oxide glasses, vibrations, boson peak, spectroscopy.

0286 | Amorphous-to-amorphous transitions in germanate glasses by thermal poling-induced proton injection Guillaume Guimbretiere1*, E.I. Kamitsos2 1Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, UPR3079 CEMHTI, 1D avenue de la recherche Scientifique, France e-mail: [email protected] 2Theoretical and Physical Chemistry Institute, National Hellenic Research Foundation, Greece, e-mail: [email protected] Restructuring in germanate glasses, either chemically by addition of alkali oxides [1] or mechanically by application of pressure, is an old and still debated issue. We report here structure modifications in amorphous germanates induced by thermal poling (when a constant voltage is applied during heating and subsequent cooling down under the electric field), and monitored by polarized µ-Raman spectroscopy. The germanate structures are characterized by the usual deconvolution/assignment procedure and the use of an Effective Force Constant (EFC) model. This links the spectroscopic data with the average angle θ and the effective stretching force constant, kr, of the Ge-O-Ge bridges. It was found for xNa2O-(1-x)GeO2 glasses that thermal poling induces migration of Na+ ions, coupled with the injection of protons (H+) from the atmosphere. Depending of the poling parameters, two modes of germanate restructuring were observed in terms of the H+ injection rate. The two restructuring mechanisms (compactions) are illustrated in Figure 1 by correlating the Ge-OH content with kr. The compaction level is pictured by arrows and is estimated from the Raman data (θ value and its distribution and population of small rings). 1. E.I. Kamitsos et al., J. Phys. Chem. 100 (1996) 11755.

INVITED 0204 | New photonics glasses and waveguides for lightwave SPEAKER processing Yasutake Ohishi Research Center for Advanced Photon Technology, Graduate School of Engineering, Toyota Technological Institute, 2-12-1 Hisakata, Tempaku, Nagoya 468-8511, Japan, e-mail: [email protected] Many efforts have been devoted to material and waveguide device developments to meet the demands of future telecommunication systems and other data transmitting services. Silica fibers are currently used as major waveguide materials in telecom technologies. However, they have limited performance if they are applied to active fiber devices. Among non-silica glasses, such as heavy metal oxide and non-oxide glasses, are promising materials for photonic applications, as they combine (i) a wide transmission window, (ii) good glass stability, (iii) increased nonlinear optical properties, and (iv) relatively low phonon energies. We have studied the potential of tellurite and chalcogenide fibers including microstructured fibers as optical signal processing and coherent light generation media. We have succeeded in chromatic control using microstructured fibers and opened a new prospect for lightwave processing and coherent light generation using nonlinear phenomena. The specific properties of tellurite and chalcogenide glasses are applicable to not only optical amplifications and multi-wavelength lasers, wavelength conversion, THG, SHG and supercontinuum generation from visible to mid-infrared region but also efficient slow light generation. I will present a new prospect of lightwave processing and coherent light generation using new high nonlinear waveguides.

Most of the Bi containing glasses investigated up to now for such application are based on silicates, germanates or phosphates systems. Few studies dealing with Bi infrared luminescence in chalcogenide glass hosts have been reported in the literature.

In the present work, we report the luminescence from Bi doped Ga2S3-GeS2-CsCl chalco halide glasses in the 1000-1700 nm range under excitation at 980 nm wavelength with diode laser. The near infrared luminescence of Bi in the Ga2S3-GeS2-CsCl glass has been measured in function of the Bi concentration, the glass thermal history (temperature and rate quenching), and the heat treatments performed above glass transition temperature. A wide and complex emission band with a full width of half maximum (FWHM) of about 600 nm was observed upon excitation at 980 nm. The obtained results will be discussed and compared to the published models of Bi emission in glasses. Keywords: chalco halide glass, bismuth, broadband luminescence, near infrared.

of Ba2+ concentration, the infrared luminescence at around 1.54 mm excited by 980 nm light was broadening and the oxygen coordination number of Er3+ from the results of X-ray absorption fine structure measurements increased. These characteristic changes were occurred in quite low x value and were saturated at x = 0.05.

This x region corresponds to where the temperature of the immiscibility boundary in the BaO-SiO2 system increases.

We intend to exploit soda-zinc-aluminosilicate glasses as hosts for the three above mentioned ions, and we have prepared glasses singly doped with Tb3+ or Ce3+ ions or codoped with Tb3+ and Ce3+, in order to carefully test their suitability for this application.

The value of w was changed according to dopant concentration (0.05 or 0.1) in order to keep their sum equal to 5 (all figures are mol% ). Optical properties (refractive index and chromatic dispersion) were first measured by dark-line spectroscopy. Afterwards, waveguides were produced in the samples by Ag+ and K+ ion exchange; different exchange temperatures and diffusion times were tested. Finally, absorption, emission, and Raman spectroscopic measurements were performed both on as- produced glasses and on ion-exchanged samples. The results will be reported in detail at the conference.

INVITED 0206 | Active glass and ceramic materials for green photonics SPEAKER Setsuhisa Tanabe Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies, Kyoto University, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606-8501, Japan Facing the present global crisis against human survival, various kinds of technologies have been proposed and under trials for realization. Among many controversial technologies that are stated to be “sustainable”, there seems little room for discussion in the statement that increased installation of photovoltaic systems and adoption of energy-efficient LEDs in many lighting fields are no doubt the trend toward sustainability. Even overcoming cost-related issues, the optimism has bright prospect on these “green technologies”, which we see is not a kind of those fading away, at least, in the next several decades. We now recognize that cost have dropped to the point where LEDs are the way to go in general lighting and backlighting of displays and more. Rare-earth doped phosphors are playing crucially important roles in the phosphor-converting white LED (pc-wLED), where they convert blue light from an InGaN-based LED into white spectra with good color-rendering and without any UV and infrared light, unlike incandescent light bulbs, being on its way out after 130-years run due to government restrictions or efficiency regulations. Since 2004, we have developed glass ceramic phosphors based on Ce3+:YAG or various Eu2+ silicate crystals, proposing “all inorganic solution” for the solid-state lighting, especially high-power illumination. The broadband photoluminescence by the Laporte-allowed 5dà4f transitions in the lanthanide (Ln) enables efficient and reasonable conversion of near-UV or blue light into visible white in the pc-wLEDs. Device forms of glass ceramics in the pc-wLED have many advantages of formability, thermal resistance and no need of packaging powder phosphors. Recently, we are also developing “quantum-cutting” (QC) phosphors for photovoltaic (PV) applications to improve solar cell efficiency by modifying solar spectrum. Since the sun is regarded as a black-body radiator with temperature around 6000K, the solar spectrum is very broad having a peak around 500nm (2.4eV). Solar cells, on the other hand, create one electron-hole pair most effectively with a photon of energy just above the semiconductor band gap, i.e., 1.1eV for the c-Si. The mismatch between the incident solar spectrum and the spectral response of semiconductors is one of the main reasons to limit the efficiency of single-junction cells. The efficiency limit of the c-Si has been estimated to be 29% by Shockley and Queisser [1]. However, this limit is estimated to be improved up to 38.4% by modifying the solar spectrum by a QC down-converting phosphor that converts one photon of high energy into two photons of lower energy [2]. Among thirteen lanthanide elements, the Yb3+ ion has a simple energy-level structure having only one excited 2 3+ level, F5/2 at 1.2eV. There are several combinations of Ln and Yb in glass and ceramics, by which Ln ions can sensitize the Yb3+ emission at 1mm. Some of the combinations exhibit the QC after optical absorption 3+ 2 2 of uv and blue photon. Since the Yb : F5/2® F7/2 emission and sensitivity peak of the c-Si solar cell overlap each other, the QC materials which convert one UV or blue photon into two 1.2eV photons would be an ideal phosphor for the PV generation. In this talk, I will review the glass ceramic phosphors for solid-state lighting and also discuss recent studies on the QC phosphors of Ln3+ and Yb3+ ions codoped ceramics and glasses [3,4] for efficient PV generation. 1.

0176 | Correlation between the refractive index change and the crystallization kinetics in photo-thermo-refractive glass Julien Lumeau*, Leonid B. Glebov CREOL, The College of Optics and Photonics, University of Central Florida, 4000, Central Florida Blvd, ORLANDO, FL 32816-2700, e-mail: [email protected] Photo-thermo-refractive (PTR) glass is a photosensitive multi-component silicate glass that exhibits refractive index change after successive UV-exposure and thermal treatment. The refractive index change was recently demonstrated to be due to stresses that appear after precipitation of NaF nano-crystals in the glass matrix. Therefore understanding the mutual relations between the refractive index change and the crystallization kinetics is a key point for fabricating any holographic elements based on PTR glass. In this paper

Salvador, BA, Brazil – September 20-25, 2010 - 23 - Invited and Oral Presentations

we present the data on the dependence of the refractive index change versus thermal treatment duration and temperature in already UV-exposed and nucleated samples. Using Avrami plots, we show that the slope of the linear fit is equal to 1.5, demonstrating that the refractive index change is based on a diffusion-controlled growth of particles from pre-existing nuclei. We demonstrate that such findings are relevant as refractive index change is expected to be directly proportional to the size and volume fraction of NaF crystals in the glass. The effect of thermal treatment temperature on maximum refractive index change is studied and a conclusion about the basic mechanisms of refractive index change in PTR glasses is proposed. Keywords: crystallization, growth, photosensitivity, optical glasses, refractive index, avrami plot.

Glebov CREOL, The College of Optics and Photonics, University of Central Florida, 4000, Central Florida Blvd, ORLANDO, FL 32816-2700, e-mail: [email protected] Photo-Thermo-Refractive (PTR) glass is a photosensitive multicomponent silicate glass and is extensively used for the fabrication of diffractive optical elements (DOE). The refractive index change is the result of photo-thermo-induced precipitation of sodium fluoride (NaF) nanocrystals inside the glass matrix, following exposure to UV radiation and thermal development. The aim of this study is to reveal the correlation between the volume fraction of NaF nanocrystalline phase and the refractive index change in PTR glass by means of X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). In order to achieve this, we studied the evolution of the intensity and positions of the X-ray diffraction lines as a function of UV-dosage and heat treatment duration and temperature. DSC measurements performed on the same samples also are presented and compared to the previous results. In conclusion the influence of the volume fraction of NaF crystal on the refractive index change and losses in PTR glass is established and the data used for designing optimal thermal treatments that will allow improving the properties of DOEs. Keywords: photosensitivity, optical glasses, crystallization, nanoparticles, X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry.

0108 | Precious metal functionalized soda-lime silicate glasses A. Simo*, K. Rademann Institut für Chemie, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Brook-Taylor-Str. 2, 12489 Berlin, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] Since ion-exchanged glasses turned out to be excellently suited as host matrix for nanoparticles due to their outstanding stabilizing properties, metal functionalized surfaces of glass can play an important role in future bioanalytics especially in the field of chemical and biological sensing, drug design and catalysis. In the present contribution we report on precious metal functionalized soda-lime silicate glasses, namely Au, Ag and Cu nanoparticles in the sub-surface region of glass. We developed an optimised technique consisting of a combined ion-exchange method under isothermal and isochronal conditions and a subsequent reactive diffusion process in hydrogen atmosphere, that permits to introduce efficiently very high metal concentrations spatial localized in a thin sub-surface layer of the glass. By taking advantage of the electromagnetic near field enhancement of noble metal clusters those plasmonic structures are promising e.g. as long-term stable SERS (surface enhanced raman scattering) substrates due to the well stabilizing properties of glass. In our investigations the enhancement factor can be quoted in the range of 106-107. Moreover we like to point out that those glass substrates were found to be long-term stable over a course of one year without any signal intensity decrease. For a directed and controlled particle design a constitutive understanding of mechanistic details is essential. Recently, it could be shown that Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) is a powerful tool to investigate the nucleation and growth processes of nanoparticles. In this contribution we focus on systematic investigations of metal nanoparticle formation in soda-lime silicate glass using a coupling of methods such as Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (EPR), Small Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and UV/VIS. New insights can be achieved using these methods providing information about the chemical state as well as the size, number and polydispersity of formed particles at one time. From the data the different phases of particle formation, nucleation and growth mechanism will be discussed. Keywords: noble metal nanoparticles, nucleation and growth, small angle X-ray scattering.

0381 | Thermo-optical properties of soda lime silicate glasses doped with erbium and silver Maria José Valenzuela Bell1*, Virgilio de Carvalho dos Anjos1, Zélia Maria Da Costa1, Alysson Freitas 1, Luiz Carlos Barbosa2, Walter Maigon Pontuschka3, Enver Fernandez Chillcce2, Júlia Maria Giehl3 1Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora, Juiz de Fora – MG, Brazil, e-mail: [email protected] 2Instituto de Física Gleb Wataghin – UNICAMP, Campinas, Brazil 3Instituto de Física – USP, São Paulo, Brazil Glasses containing metallic nanoparticles are attracting great interest because they may present enhanced optical properties. In particular, glasses doped with rare earth ions containing metallic nanoparticles have been exploited because the rare earth luminescence may be intensified due to the presence of nanoparticles. Soda-lime silicate glasses are attractive materials for the fabrication of low cost integrated optical amplifiers and lasers by using the ion exchange technique due to their good chemical durability and adaptability. Nevertheless, concerning their thermal properties, namely thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity and heat capacity there is a lack of data. Moreover, the influence of nanoparticles is still a matter of debate in the literature. In this work the thermal properties of Soda-lime silicate glasses co-doped with silver and Er3+, were measured by using the thermal lens and heat capacity techniques. Focus was given to the role of Ag for the host properties. It was shown that the presence of silver aggregates increase the thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity of the glasses. Keywords: glasses, nanoparticles, soda lime aluminosilicate, thermal diffusivity.

0411 | Photo-thermo-refractive glass co-doped with Nd3+ as a new laser medium Larissa Glebova1,2*, Julien Lumeau2, and Leonid B. Glebov2 1OptiGrate Corp. 3267 Progress Dr. Orlando, FL 32826 2CREOL, The College of Optics and Photonics, University of Central Florida, 4000 Central Florida Blvd, ORLANDO, FL 32816-2700, e-mail: [email protected] The use of volume holographic elements recorded in photo-thermo-refractive (PTR) for different types of lasers enabled dramatic increase of spectral and spatial brightness. These elements work as output couplers, selectors of resonator modes, short pulses stretchers and compressors, and spectral beam combiners. PTR glass is a multicomponent silicate glass doped with Ce and Ag which provide refractive index change after exposure to UV radiation followed by thermal development. This work is directed to the study of PTR glass co-doped with Nd3+ as well. The glass samples with different concentration of Nd and Ce were prepared and investigated. Absorption and luminescence spectra of such glasses have shown features typical for all multicomponent silicate glasses. It was found that co-doping of PTR glass with Nd does not eliminate its photosensitivity. Therefore this glass could be used as a complex gain medium enabling creation of an all- solid-state laser where a gain medium and a resonator are incorporated in the same piece glass. Keywords: photo-thermo-refractive glass, laser glass, photosensitivity.

INVITED 0467 | Multifuncionality on silica glass. Advanced SPEAKER nanostructured coating Sidney J.L. Ribeiro Institute of Chemistry- São Paulo State University- UNESP, CP 355, Araraquara- SP- 14801-970, Brazil, e-mail: [email protected] Photochromic windows, IR and/or UV pumped white light emitting films and luminescent mesoporous sensing materials are the main functional activities we have considering to add to silica glass substrates through nanostructured coatings. Photochromicity is being achieved by the utilization of the well known redox pairs W6+/W5+, Mo6+/ Mo5+ and Ti4+/Ti3+. Hosts considered in the films fabrication include cellulose derivatives and vegetable oils based organic-inorganic hybrids and polyurethanes. The light activated redox phenomena is studied as a function of the films and metal containing nanoparticles chemical nature IR and/or UV pumped white light emission is being achieved by the deposition of nanoparticulate films based on rare earth compounds, mainly vanadates and tellurites. The triads Eu3+-Tb3+-Tm3+ and Yb3+-Ho3+- Tm3+ have been considered for UV and IR pumping respectively, with the emitting colors being tuned by the rare earth relative compositions and also the chemical nature of the nanoparticles. Finally, mesoporous silica films have been obtained by dip-coating together with Evaporation Induced Self Assembly (EISA). Mesoporous thin films constitute a platform for special luminescent/raman sensors and luminophors by incorporating rare earth compounds and colloidal metal particles in the ordered porous structure.

Keywords: photochromic, white light emission, mesoporous films, raman sensors, luminescence.

0150 | Nanostructured SiO2 – TiO2 functional glass coating with low emissivity prepared by sol-gel M. Clara Gonçalves*, Rui M. Almeida Departamento de Engenharia de Materiais, ICEMS, Instituto Superior Técnico, TULisbon, Av. Rovisco Pais, 1000 Lisboa, Portugal, e-mail: [email protected] A low-emissivity (low-E) coating transmits short-wavelength visible light, while absorbing ultra-violet (UV) and short-wavelength infrared (IR) and reflecting long-wavelength thermal radiation. Such coatings are normally deposited by spray pyrolysis or by sputtering. The sol-gel method is another possible low-cost alternative technology to be investigated for this purpose. In particular, sol-gel derived Bragg mirrors have been investigated as possible coating structures for such application. Multilayer quarter-wave Bragg mirrors were modelled by the Transfer Matrix method, designed to have either UV or near-IR reflectivity (but visible transparency), based on alternating silica/titania quarter-wave stacks. Composite multilayer structures consisting of the two types of Bragg mirrors overlapped on a common substrate have been deposited by sol-gel processing on selected glass substrates and their optical properties have been measured by optical absorption and reflection spectroscopies, as well as spectroscopic ellipsometry. The UV-visible-IR absorption and reflection characteristics of these multilayer coatings revealed low-E behavior. The combination of multiple types of Bragg mirrors on a common substrate offers an interesting possibility for obtaining functional optical coatings with low-E properties, while the sol-gel technique is a potential low-cost method to deposit such coatings on large area glass substrates. Keywords: film, sol-gel, silica/titania, low-emissivity, Bragg mirror, ellipsometry, near IR-reflectivity.

Misture1 1*Alfred University, Inamori School of Engineering, Alfred, NY 14802, USA, e-mail: [email protected] 2Middle East Technical University, Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, Ankara, Turkey 06531 Transition metal oxide thin films and nanocomposites are functional structures that have current or potential application as transparent conducting oxides, chromogenics, photocatalysts, and bactericidal agents. In this study several binary transition metal oxide nanocomposite systems were synthesized via sol-gel processing. Their structure, chemistry, and morphology were determined using a wide range of in-situ and ex-situ surface- sensitive techniques including; in-situ x-ray diffraction and x-ray reflectivity, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy. Particular attention was focused on the transformation(s) occurring throughout the amorphous to nanocrystalline transition with post-coating heat treatment. A variety of functionality measurements including surface resistivity, photocatalytic activity, and bactericidal activity were measured on selected thin films. Keywords: nanocomposites, thin films, sol-gel, surface characterization.

TiO2 nanoparticles have been widely used due to high refractive index and transparency in the visible. An interesting alternative to TiO2 colloids is represented by layered titanates consisting of crystalline sheets of titanium oxide. In this work titanates have been used as the high refractive index component. A colloidal solution of exfoliated titanate sheets has been developed employing sol-gel precursors and an aminoalcohol. This material could be introduced in specifically designed hybrid organic-inorganic material derived from silane functionalized polyethylene glycol short chains, obtaining nanocomposites with improved processing behavior. Transparent materials with refractive index up to about 1.8 are obtained which can be used for planar waveguides fabrication by spin coating technique. Beyond refractive index enhancement, the chemical environment of titanates allowed the incorporation of properly functionalized highly luminescent CdSe@ ZnS semiconductor Quantum Dots, obtaining a nanocomposite with both high refractive index and stable photoluminescence. In addition to spin casting, this material could be processed using aerosol-based deposition techniques that allows for almost defect-free structure in the sub-millimeter range. Keywords: nanocomposites, titanate nanosheets, semiconductor quantum dots, waveguides, sol-gel.

LDHs are typically prepared using co-precipitation processing and are obtained as powder. However, for application of LDH to functional materials and for evaluation of their optical properties or intercalation reaction of LDH crystals, formation of LDH thin films on substrates is favorable. In the present study, Zn-Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) nano-crystals precipitated coatings intercalated with various organic anions were prepared on glass substrates by immersion of sol-gel derived amorphous

Al2O3-ZnO thin films in hot water containing organic salts and organic dyes. We found that Zn-Al LDH thin films intercalated with various organic anions, such as dodecyl sulfate, p-toluenesulfonate, benzenecarboxylate and organic dyes such as sulfonated 1,3’,3’-trimethyl-6-nitrospiro[2H-chromene-2,2’-indoline], pyranine, Brilliant blue FCF, Fast green FCF, and Bordeaux S were easily prepared on glass substrates. These coatings can be applied to anti-reflective coatings, and colored coatings for glass substrates. Keywords:. layered double hydroxide, sol-gel process, thin films, anionic organic dyes.

0283 | Meso-structured TiO2-P2O5 and SiO2-TiO2-P2O5 membranes prepared by EISA method for applications in PEMFC Y. Castro, L. Peláez, M. Aparicio, A. Durán* Instituto de Cerámica y Vidrio (ICV), CSIC, Campus de Cantoblanco, 28049 Madrid, e-mail: e-mail: [email protected] One important application of sol-gel process is the preparation of thin membranes for Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC). NAFIONÒ membranes present several limitations such as high cost and low stability above 80 ºC, its maximum operation temperature. One important requirement for new membranes is the increase of working temperature up to T~ 150-200 ºC, permitting enhancing the thermal and chemical stability. Inorganic mesoporous membranes constitute a clear option for producing fast proton conductors. Pore structure (pore size and pore orientation) and pore interconnectivity are essential issues for obtaining high proton conductivity.

The aim of this work has been to prepare mesostructured TiO2-P2O5 and SiO2-TiO2-P2O5 thin membranes by sol-gel and evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA) method. The synthesis parameters such as type of precursor, RH, and concentration of reagents have been optimized to obtain stable sols. The membranes, deposited by dipping controlling the relative humidity and the withdrawal rate, and sintered at 350ºC, were characterized by GXRD, TEM and Spectral Ellipsometry. Conductivity measurements were performed at different RH (40-100%) and temperatures (40-100 ºC) to evaluate the behaviour of these membranes as a function of composition, temperature, RH, pore volume, pore size distribution and specific surface area. Keywords: membranes, sol-gel, PEMFC, conductivity, mesostructure, mesoporous.

Up to now, the structuring of materials on a nano-scale has usually involved methods based on one of the following mechanisms: soft chemical processes for self-organization of nano- structures using the laws of hydrodynamics or random precipitation of nanocrystals during thermal treatment. On the contrary, the present work aims to master the in situ creation and the localized organization of CdS nanoparticules (NPs) in a sol-gel matrix by controlling the growth with an optical beam.

SiO2 and ZrO2–based glasses are of particular interest because of their excellent mechanical, thermal and optical properties. Our materials have been prepared using a sol–gel route which makes it possible to obtain porous host matrices with controlled pore-sizes and high quality planar waveguides.

In this communication, we present results on UV-irradiation of SiO2 monoliths and TPA-assisted organized growth of CdS semiconductor NPs in ZrO2 thin films and on their optical properties. The formation kinetics of the CdS NPs can be followed using time-resolved photoluminescence spectra. The systems obtained were also characterized using micro-Raman spectroscopy, a fully suitable tool for verifying the presence of CdS NPs in the matrices, even at low concentrations and to follow the structural modification of the sol-gel matrices. Keywords: Nanostructured glasses, Sol-gel, Semiconductor nanoparticles, UV irradiation, TPA process, Raman spectroscopy.

Ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (EMITFSI) was incorporated in

P2O5-SiO2 glass using the sol-gel method and their proton conductivities were investigated. Proton conductivity of the fabricated membranes was measured within temperature range –30 °C to 150 °C, and high conductivity –3 of 5 × 10 S/cm was obtained for 40 wt% EMITFSI ionic liquid-doped P2O5-SiO2 membrane, at 150 °C under non-humidified conditions. The effect of EMITFSI ionic liquid addition on the microstructure of the membranes

was examined by SEM, 1H-MAS-NMR, FT-IR, and TG-DTA analysis. The EMITFSI ionic liquid was also confined in the small pores formed in the P2O5-SiO2 glass, where it was found that the melting temperature of EMITFSI decreases to below the normal melting temperature of pure EMITFSI, which contributes to high conductivities at low temperatures. Keywords: sol-gel, proton-conductor, ionic-liquid, electrolyte.

INVITED SPEAKER 0142 | Improving practical glass strength: myths and realities Russell J. Hand Department of Engineering Materials, University of Sheffield, Sir Robert Hadfield Building, Mappin Street, Sheffield, S1 3JD, UK, e-mail: [email protected] It is well known that the strength of glass is controlled by small surface flaws and that fibre optics, which are prepared in an essentially flaw free state and then coated, achieve strength values approaching theoretical values. The coatings on fibre optics prevent mechanical damage but do not prevent some chemical and strength degradation over time. Currently there is much discussion concerning ways of improving the practical strength of other glass articles to increase the competitiveness of glass, whether this is by compositional change, coatings or induced residual stresses. Our work on relating mechanical properties and glass composition indicate that compositional gains are likely to be limited and that surface hydration leads to at least a local degradation of glass properties. Meanwhile our work on thin soft epoxy based coatings shows that damage can be overcome and strengths returned to values similar to those arising from initial production. Significant increases in the practical strength of glass articles must do more than this and must also be maintained with time whilst retaining other desirable properties. This presentation will review our compositions and coating related work with the aim of identifying both the myths and realities of improving practical glass strength. Keywords: glass strength, mechanical strength, coatings.

INVITED SPEAKER 0061 | Review of chemical strengthening of glass: lessons learned and yet to be learned Arun K. Varshneya Saxon Glass Technologies, Inc. Alfred NY, and NY State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, Alfred NY 14802, e-mail: [email protected] This paper reviews the progress that has been made in our understanding of the chemical strengthening of glass by ion exchange over its nearly five decades of history. Lessons learned are briefly discussed; more importantly, those which are yet to be learned are highlighted. It is recognized that the influence of chemical composition could be understood better; the science of stress generation and its concurrent relaxation are far from being clear despite the elegant analogy to thermal stresses invoked by Cooper. The need to understand plasticity of glass network during accommodation of a larger invading ion is emphasized. In turn, the influence of network topology on its yield strength in shear as well as hydrostatic modes is recognized. For expanded applications under extreme conditions of loading, damage evolution in chemically strengthened glass needs to be studied. Such study is linked to our understanding of the terms “strength”, “hardness”, “toughness”, and “brittleness” of glass. Keywords: armor application, chemical strengthening, ion exchange, network plasticity,strength, surface compression, tempering.

0331 | Two-point bend studies of the failure characteristics of glass Zhongzhi Tang1, Nathan P. Lower1, Richard K. Brow1*, Charles R. Kurkjian2 and Prabhat K. Gupta3 1*Missouri University of Science and Technology, Dept. Materials Sci. & Engrg., Rolla, MO 65409 USA, e-mail: [email protected] 2University of Southern Maine, Dept. Engineering, Gorham, ME 04038 USA 3The Ohio State University, Dept. Materials Sci. & Engrg., Columbus, OH 43210 USA The two-point bend (2pb) technique is a simple method to study the failure characteristics of glass fibers. With care in handling and testing under liquid nitrogen, the intrinsic failure behavior of pristine glasses can be evaluated. The 2pb technique measures the strain at failure (ef) and this can exceed 20% for some glasses when tested under liquid nitrogen to eliminate fatigue effects. In general, modified silicate glasses with greater numbers of non-bridging oxygens have greater ef than silicate or aluminosilicate glasses that possess more cross-linked structures. In addition, the failure strain of modified glasses increases with decreasing strain rates under liquid nitrogen, whereas the cross-linked glasses exhibit no strain-rate dependence, or a slight decrease in failure strain with decreasing strain rate. This strain rate dependence has been called the ‘inert delayed failure effect’ (IDFE). In the present paper, the results from inert two-point bending studies of a variety of commercial and laboratory silicate glasses will be reviewed. In general, glasses with greater zero-strain elastic moduli have smaller inert failure strains and there is a correlation between IDFE and the way a glass responds to indentation loads. These results will be discussed in relation to the development of fracture-resistant glasses. Keywords: failure strain, strength, glass structure, indentation.

0071 | Measurement of elastic and residual stresses at indents in glasses C. R. Kurkjian1*, S. Yoshida2, H. Aben3, A. Errapart3, R. Oldenbourg4, M. J. Matthewson5 1University of Southern Maine 2University of Shiga Prefecture, Japan 3Tallinn Technical University 4Woods Hole Marine Biology Laboratory 5Rutgers University Indentation of a glass surface with a blunt indenter will initially result in the development of elastic stresses in the glass. If the glass surface contains flaws, the presence of tensile surface radial stresses will result in the development of a ring crack just outside the area of contact. Increased loading will allow circumferential stresses to propagate this ring crack into the body of the glass as a cone crack. As the ball becomes smaller (e.g., is less than 0.1 mm), yielding will occur with or without cracking, depending on the effective stresses and the perfection of the glass surface. All of these stresses may be conveniently imaged using photoelastic techniques and we have shown in principle that all of the three-dimensional stresses may be calculated from these data. To date almost no work has been done in this area despite its obvious importance to the understanding of processes involved in glass damage and the resulting catastrophic strength degradation. We show images and calculations of the elastic stresses under load and also present images of residual stress birefringence which develops as the yield point of the glass is exceeded. While completely satisfactory calculations of three-dimensional residual stresses from birefringence data have not yet been made, preliminary results as well as calculations using Yoffe’s equations have been carried out and illustrate the magnitudes expected and the value of such studies. Keywords: birefringence, contact stresses, cracking, indentation, strength.

0194 | Effect of thermal history on indentation-induced densification of glass Satoshi Yoshida1*, Akiko Konno1, Toru Sugawara1, Yoshinari Miura1, Jun Matsuoka1 1*Center for Glass Science and Technology, The University of Shiga Prefecture, Hikone, Shiga, Japan, e-mail: [email protected] It is known that brittle behaviors of glass are related with its mechanical response against foreign bodies. Indentation test is one of the simple and convenient tests for evaluating such a contact problem. At room temperature, deformation of conventional glass under a sharp diamond indenter can be classified into two different modes, shear flow and permanent densification. It was already reported that the ratio of densified volume to total indentation volume can be estimated from the change in indentation volume before and after annealing at around glass transition temperature. It has been also found out that the densification contribution to total indentation deformation of glass shows a distinct compositional dependence. In this study, effects of thermal history on the indentation-induced densification of soda-lime silicate glass were investigated by AFM observation of Vickers indents before and after annealing. The volume ratio of densified

- 30 - Salvador, BA, Brazil – September 20-25, 2010 Invited and Oral Presentations

region to total indentation deformation increases with increasing fictive temperature of glass. It is elucidated that the mechanism of inelastic deformation in glass under a sharp indenter changes not only with glass compositions but also with structures given by different heat treatments. It is expected that the deformation mechanism of glass surely affects cracking behaviors under the indenter. Keywords: densification, indentation, thermal history, fictive temperature.

INVITED 0169 | Evaluating the solubility and homogeneity SPEAKER of plutonium in an alkali borosilicate glass James C. Marra1*, Charles L. Crawford1, Kevin M. Fox1, Sergey V. Stefanovsky2 1*Savannah River National Laboratory, Aiken, SC U.S.A., e-mail: [email protected] 2SIA Radon Institute, Moscow, Russia Glass waste forms have been considered as candidate immobilization matrices for long-term Pu disposal. A disposition approach that involves immobilizing plutonium in alkali borosilicate high level radioactive waste (HLW) glass is now being considered. In typical HLW glasses, the concentration of plutonium is low (typically on the order of 0.01 wt % PuO2 in the glass). The behavior of plutonium in the glass at these low concentrations has been analyzed and determined not to impact processing, criticality safety or glass performance. If Pu levels in the glass are increased to significantly higher levels, an understanding of the behavior of Pu during processing and in the produced glass is needed. In this study, the behavior of plutonium in an HLW glass of nominal composition was evaluated at concentrations up to 2 wt % Pu in the glass. The homogeneity of Pu in the glass was assessed using scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction analysis was used to assess crystallization within the glass. The results will be related to previous testing involving higher concentrations of plutonium in a lanthanide borosilicate (LaBS) glass. Keywords: Waste vitrification, plutonium immobilization, glass crystallization, glass structure, glass homogeneity.

Hand1* 1*ISL, Department of Engineering Materials, University of Sheffield, Sir Robert Hadfield Building, Mappin Street,Sheffield, S1 3JD, UK, e-mail: [email protected] 2Serco Technical Services, 150 Harwell Science and Innovation Campus, Didcot, Oxfordshire, OX11 0QB, UK 3NDA Harwell Office, Building 587, Curie Avenue, Harwell Science and Innovation Campus, Didcot, Oxfordshire, OX11 0RH, UK The current baseline for the conditioning of most UK intermediate-level radioactive waste (ILW) is immobilisation with cement. However, vitrification of some UK ILW is being considered as an alternative. If vitrified waste is deposited in the same part of a geological disposal facility as cement-based wasteforms then it will be subject to a highly alkaline environment. Very few long term durability experiments have been carried out on glasses in this sort of environment. Therefore we have been studying the performance of a simulant vitrified ILW glass in a Ca(OH)2-buffered, high pH environment using PCT and MCC-1 type tests over a range of temperatures. Initial results indicate relatively rapid alteration of the glass studied under these conditions coupled with formation of secondary products. These results will be discussed and presented within the context of our wider understanding of glass alteration mechanisms. Keywords: waste vitrification, glass durability, alkaline environment.

0149 | Redox control of nuclear glass Olivier Pinet*, Isabelle Hugon, Sylvain Mure CEA, DEN, DTCD, SECM, LDMC, F-30207 Bagnols sur Cèze Cedex, France, e-mail: [email protected] Vitrification is one of the recommended immobilization routes for nuclear waste, and is currently implemented at industrial scale in several countries, notably for high-level waste. To optimize and extend the scope of nuclear waste vitrification, research is conducted to specify suitable glass formulations and develop more effective processes. Vitrified nuclear waste often contains several multivalent species whose oxidation state can impact the properties of the melt and of the final glass. The redox control of nuclear glass is often advantageous: in many case it could improve the glass melting and increase the amount of waste in the final glass. In the glassmaking industry, the oxidation state of glass is optimized in order to improve the glass properties, notably refinement and color. In this case the aimed redox state is obtained by a relevant choice of raw materials. Redox control of nuclear glass is more complex because several redox species are contained in these glasses. Furthermore raw materials are partly imposed by the chemical and physical property of the waste that must be vitrified and specific constraints due to the active process. Different techniques of glass redox control developed by the CEA for nuclear waste vitrification are reviewed. Keywords: foaming, nuclear glass, oxygen fugacity, redox, vitrification process.

0188 | Summary of cold crucible vitrification tests results with savannah river site high level waste surrogates Sergey. V. Stefanovsky1*, Vladimir V. Lebedev1, Sergey Y. Shvetsov1, Dmitriy Y. Suntsov1, Oleg A. Knyazev1, James C. Marra2 1*State Unitary Enterprise of the City of Moscow – United Ecology, Technology and Research Center for RAW Management and Environmental Remediation (SIA Radon) – Moscow – Russia, e-mail: [email protected] 2Savannah River National Laboratory, Aiken – USA Successful operation of the cold crucible based unit at SIA Radon for vitrification of low- and intermediate- level radioactive wastes facilitated consideration of the Cold Crucible Induction Melting (CCIM) technology for implementation in high level waste vitrification facilities. During the last eight years, SIA Radon researchers investigated the application of CCIM for vitrification of high level wastes (HLW) stored at the US DOE sites. In the framework of collaborations between Savannah River National Laboratory and SIA Radon, high-Fe (SB2) and high-Fe/Al (SB4) Savannah River Site HLW surrogates were combined with borosilicate frit in slurries with water contents varying from ~27 wt.% to ~70 wt.%. These feed slurries were successfully vitrified in crucibles up to 418 mm inner diameter. The maximum slurry feeding rate, melt pouring rate, specific productivity and melting ratio at ~50 wt.% water content in the slurry reached ~40 kg/hr, ~14 kg/hr, ~2400 kg/(m2d), and ~10 kW h/kg of glass, respectively. The maximum waste loading in the glass reached 55-60 wt.%. Spinel 2+ 3+ crystals with a magnetite/trevorite composition and a generalized formula (Fe,Ni,Mn,Mg) (Fe,Cr,Al) O4 (with trace of Cu2+ and Zn2+) were the only crystalline phases observed in all the glassy products at ~10-15 vol.% of the total bulk. The presence of the spinel crystals had no effect on product quality as demonstrated by the high leach resistance of the vitrified product. Keywords: borosilicate glass, cold crucible inductive melting, radioactive waste, spinel, vitrification, waste loading.

Liquidus temperature (TL) was pinpointed as an important glass property for vitrification processing regardless of the melter technology being used or glass system being employed for waste immobilization and was, therefore, considered of world-wide interest. However, waste glasses are often opaque, making TL measurements by conventional means problematic. An isothermal TL determination technique was developed at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (Richland, WA, U.S.A.) that appeared to be repeatable and accurate for waste glasses. Round-robin testing was needed to verify and validate the experimental technique for eventual adoption as an ASTM procedure. Two glasses were sent to 8 laboratories from 5 different countries for isothermal TL measurements. A procedure was sent to each laboratory for isothermal TL measurements using two test method variations. The data have been statistically analyzed to evaluate the accuracy and precision of the method. The results showed that the procedure provides accurate, reproducible results for the measurement of TL in these glasses. Keywords: Liquidus temperature, waste vitrification, ASTM procedure, glass crystallization

0354 | Thermal Properties of Iron Phosphate Glasses for Nuclear Waste Applications A.P. da Silva1, Z.M. da Costa Ludwig1, M.J.V. Bell1*, V. Anjos1, S.T. Reis2 1Departamento de Física, Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora, Juiz de Fora-MG, Brazil *[email protected] 2Graduate Center for Materials Research, MST, Rolla, MO, EUA Phosphate glasses are known to be useful for immobilization and disposal of nuclear waste. The combination of iron phosphate glasses with various types of simulated nuclear waste showed that it is possible to have nuclear wasteform with corrosion rate one thousand times less than that of borosilicate glasses. Moreover, iron phosphate presents better chemical durability than borosilicate glass. Even though there can be found a large amount of data concerning Raman scattering, Mosbauer effect, DTA analysis and X-Ray diffraction, there is a lack of thermal data of iron phosphate. In this way, complementary investigations are necessary to complete the database of this compound, notably concerning the thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity and heat capacity. Such properties are of importance for the proposed applications, since vitrified disposals may be submitted to elevated temperatures. In the present work, Open Cell Photo-acoustic technique was used to obtain the thermal diffusivity. The thermal conductivity was obtained by volumetric heat capacity measurements. To our knowledge this is the first time the thermal properties of iron phosphate glasses are measured. It is shown that these glasses present high thermal conductivity, comparable with other materials used for nuclear waste. It is an advantage in order to limit the temperatures rising due to the thermal effects associated with the nuclear disintegration of radionuclides. Keywords: waste disposal, glasses, thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, heat capacity.

0013 | Melting kinetics of normal glass forming raw material batches and pretreated batch Hans van Limpt*, Erwin Engelaar, Ruud Beerkens TNO Glass Group, P.O.Box 6235, 5600 HE Eindhoven, The Netherlands, e-mail: [email protected] This paper will show the different aspects of melting pelletized normal raw material batch, compared to non-pelletized batch. Experimental tests will be shown to visualize the melting of those batches and to compare the first formation of liquid (melt) phases and the batch free time. Dry pellets compared to normal batch (poweder/grain batch) show lower energy consumption in industrial furnaces, due to faster melting rates. These faster rates are partly caused by the better heat transfer to and into the pellets and because of the better contact of the different raw material grains reacting with each other inside the pellets. Results of modeling will show the expected increases in melting capacity when changing from a normal powder/grain batch to a pelletized (granulated) batch, and expected energy savings will be discussed. The use of homogeneous pellets (all raw material ingredients included in each pellet) will have additional advantages compared to normal powder batch: • obtainable glass homogeneity; • no batch segregation; • improved handling properties; • no dusting and limited carry-over in the furnace; • possibility to easily preheat the pellets with the heat contents of flue gases from the furnace. Some results of TNO’s experimental investigations on the melting behavior will be presented and modeling of energy balances of glass furnaces using pellets (room temperature and preheated pellets) will be shown. Keywords: melting kinetics, melting energy, normal batch, pelletized batch, melting observations, batch preheating.

0131 | Tin oxide electrodes with Enhanced corrosion resistance Julien Fourcade* and Olivier Citti Saint-Gobain SEFPRO – Northboro R&D Center – 9 Goddard Rd, Northborough, MA-01532 (USA), e-mail: [email protected] Tin oxide electrodes have been used for many years for the electrical melting of lead crystal glasses, and more recently, to melt alkali free borosilicate glasses for electronic applications. Solubility of tin oxide in silicate-rich melts is relatively low which makes this material a good refractory for glass melting. However at very high temperature (>1550 °C), the corrosion resistance of tin oxide decreases very significantly due to what the authors describe as a partial reduction of Sn+4 to Sn2+. In air, the reduction of tin oxide is often described as : SnO (s) ⇔ SnO(g)+ 1 O (g) 2 2 2

This reaction is function of pO2 and thus, remains limited up to 1400 °C in air and in oxidized melts. Nevertheless, when electrodes are used in reduced melts and/or at temperature above 1550 °C, reduction of tin dioxide starts to have a significant impact on the corrosion of the material: stannic oxide is reduced into the more soluble stannous oxide and, the corrosion resistance of tin oxide electrodes is significantly affected. Authors have developed a new tin oxide material for electrode with enhanced corrosion resistance at very high temperature and high redox melts. The new material is doped so as to enhance its corrosion resistance and microstructure stability without decreasing its electrical conductivity. Keywords: electrical melting, LCD glass, tin oxide electrode, corrosion.

0315 | Control of parasitic currents in electrically heated compact glass melting tanks Thorsten Gerdes1*, Andreas Rosin1, Hannes Wolf1, Monika Willert-Porada1, Alexandra Füller2, Hermann Füller2 1Chair of Material Processing, University of Bayreuth, 95440 Bayreuth, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] 2Füller Glastechnologie Vertriebs-GmbH, Industriestr. 1, 92445 Spiegelau, Germany Electrically heated compact glass melting units enable the production and development of new glass types as well as the continuous production of small quantities of high quality glasses independent from huge glass tanks. Because of the small dimensions and the resulting unfavourable large contact area between glass melt and refractory material, the design of the melting tank and the arrangement of the electrodes is a crucial factor. Especially if the electrical resistance of the refractory compared to the glass melt is not sufficiently high, it leads to parasitic currents, caused by increased ion conductivity close to the glass-refractory phase boundary. As a result the refractory material is infiltrated and corroded, and thus the life time of refractory material is reduced. Furthermore the glass quality is affected because of impurities of dissolved refractory components. Therefore an important development goal is to define durable operation conditions by avoiding parasitic currents. For different glass types and for model glasses with enrichment of dissolved compounds from refractory material the electrical impedance has been measured up to 1500 °C. Together with conductivity data from the refractories the results have been implemented into a FEM-Model to simulate the current distribution in an electrically heated compact melter. Within the paper the modelling results will be compared with experimental data from a compact melter for different glass and refractory types. Keywords: compact melter, refractory material, electrically heating, ion conductivity, parasitic currents.

0207 | Modifying of refractories – ways to increase the service life Rolf Weigand*, Heiko Hessenkemper, Anne-Katrin Rössel, Michael Hubrich University of Mining and Technology Freiberg- Institute of Ceramic, Glass and Construction Materials Due to the rising prices of raw materials and energy it is necessary to minimize the investment and operating costs of a glass furnace. Refractories play an essential role in energy-intensive industries and stand for the main part of the investment costs of a typical plant. So the service life of the tank has a high economic relevance. A new cost-effective alternative to traditional methods for refining refractory bricks in contact with glass melt is shown. By creating an oxygen depression in the pores of the refractory bricks, it is possible to increase the interfacial tension of the glass melt, thus counteracting the infiltration of pores with melt as well as the progress of corrosion. This way of refining makes it possible to improve the corrosion resistance of every used refractory. The treatment technologies as well as the effect of refining are described. Different types of industrial used refractory bricks are tested by static and dynamic fingertests in diverse glass melts. Also the influences to the ceramic microstructure and to the glass melt as a result of the treatment are characterised. Keywords: glass melt, refractories, corrosion, oxygen depression, fingertest.

0048 | New high zirconia fused cast material having a high electrical resistivity for alkali free glass melting Isabelle Cabodi*, Michel Gaubil, Christel Morand1, Bruno Escaravage, Jeremy Poiret2 1Saint-Gobain C.R.E.E – Cavaillon, France, e-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] 2Saint-Gobain SEFPRO – Le Pontet, France, e-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Melting alkali free glasses, due to their high electrical resistivity, could induce some problems with refractory blocks in electrical glass furnaces or in glass furnaces using electrical boosting. Indeed, current High Zirconia Fused Cast (HZFC) products, even with a quite high electrical resistivity, can reach their limit and do not allow the melting of higher resistive glasses or to use higher electrical power. To improve the electrical resistivity of products, the common approach has been so far to improve the electrical resistivity of the glassy phase (alkali free) and/or to increase the glassy phase content. Going further in this direction of increasing glassy phase content could become hazardous for the glass defects potential and corrosion resistance of the materials. Then we develop a new approach, combining a high resistivity glassy phase with a significant increase of the resistivity of the Zirconia network itself. The electrical properties of this product are discussed through new electrical corrosion tests results. The glass contact properties remain in accordance with the glass quality level. Some data on the industrial manufacturing products are given. Keywords: electrical resistivity, alkali free glass, High Zirconia fused cast products.

0126 | New refractory cruciform for improved energy efficiency of regenerative glass furnace David Lechevalier1, Olivier Citti1*, Sebastien Bourdonnais2 1Saint-Gobain SEFPRO – Northboro R&D Center – 9 Goddard Rd, Northbrorough, MA-01532 (USA), e-mail: [email protected] 2Saint-Gobain SEFPRO – SEPR – route de Lyon BP 25 – 84131 Le Pontet Cedex (France) SEPR has a 35 year experience of innovation in regenerator of glass furnaces. Special products like ER5312RX (fused alumina) have been developed for protecting top of the packing and increasing regenerator life. For improving fuel savings, Type 4, a corrugated surface product, has been used widely in the industry for a long time. Today a new solution, Type 8, is introduced for the glass furnace to reach even higher range of energy efficiency. Its development is the result of experimental trials obtained on half scale simulator equipment. A numerical model that reproduces the heat transfer regimes encountered in a regenerator is now in place and used to optimize the packing for each application. This paper presents the technical benefit of this new solution: Type 8 has a higher specific surface area and a shape enhancing drastically the heat exchange. Due to these characteristics the type 8 product, dedicated to the top of the packing, makes the optimization of the regenerator design more versatile. First feedback from full scale industrial experience will be detailed. Keywords: regeneration, checkerworks, cruciform, heat transfer, convection, numerical modeling.

0373 | Risks in testing and selection of fusion-cast azs and alumina refractories for glass melting furnaces Amul Gupta1*, Kevin Selkregg2, Roland Heidrich3 1*RHI Monofrax, Falconer, New York, USA 2RHI Monofrax, Falconer, New York, USA 3RHI Refel, San Vito al Tagliamento, Italy Fusion-cast AZS and Alumina refractories have been used in the lining of glass melting furnaces for more than 60 years. The improvement in the quality of these refractories has enabled the glass industry to extend the life of their furnaces significantly, while at the same time producing high quality glass. However, furnace campaign life and glass quality are in doubt again as glass industry in the Americas and Europe has started using lower-cost AZS and Alumina refractories. Many companies producing lower-cost fusion- cast refractories reportedly do not adhere to the same strict standards for quality control as used by more established producers of fusion-cast refractories. This paper will present the risks involved in testing and selction of lower-cost fusion-cast refractories. Results from commonly used test methods for corrosion resistance, exudation, and blister potential will be presented. Keywords: fusion-cast, fused-cast, azs, alumina, testing, glass melting furnaces, lower-cost.

Sept. 23 – 8:00-9:45 h – Room A Tg & Relaxation (Chairman: J. Mauro)

INVITED 0130 | The landscape view of sub-tg relaxation in liquids SPEAKER and glasses Prabhat K. Gupta* The Ohio State University,Columbus, OH, USA 43235, e-mail: [email protected] Glass objects are frequently exposed to temperatures below the glass transition temperature (Tg) for a variety of reasons either during the forming stages of their manufacture or later during use. In such sub- Tg treatments, physical dimensions and properties change as a consequence of structural relaxation. The present understanding of sub-Tg relaxation remains poor. There exists a wide spread belief that such changes occurring in glasses at low temperatures are insignificant. However, there is evidence of measurable property changes taking place provided the temperatures and times are large enough. In this paper, we examine the phenomenology of sub-Tg relaxation using the energy landscape formalism. According to this landscape view, sub-Tg relaxation is composed of secondary and primary relaxation processes. The relaxation kineics of these thermally activated processes are analyzed by examining the rates of transition across the activated states. Keywords: relaxation, glass transition, activation states.

0371 | Polyamorphism and the universallity of liquid-liquid critical points in the supercooled state G.N. Greaves Centre for Advanced Functional Materials and Devicesm – Institute of Mathematics and Physics, Aberystwyth University, Aberystwyth SY23 3BZ, UK, e-mail: [email protected] The physics of critical phenomena is well-established in systems as diverse as molecular fluids, crystalline alloys, and magnetic materials. As the critical point is approached fluctuations of increasing correlation length give rise to dramatic opalescence. In the last decade evidence has emerged for the existence of a second critical point in the liquid state at supercooled temperatures, below which phases coexist differing in density but sharing the same composition – polyamorphism. Whilst much attention has been paid to supercooled water, polyamorphic phases have been observed in many elemental and oxide liquids offering routes to low entropy glasses. Our recent direct observation of a first-order liquid-liquid phase transition in levitated molten yttria-alumina offers the first opportunity to study the associated critical point in a real supercooled system. In situ small angle X-ray scattering records sharp changes in the average correlation length of fluctuations as the transition is approached. This approximates to the universal power law relation predicted by the 3D Ising model common to all critical point transitions. The observation brings the second critical point predicted in liquids into line with the liquid-gas critical point that has been familiar in water for well over a century. In so doing the experimental approach promises to unify polyamorphism in systems as chemically different as water, elemental liquids, silica and complex molten refractory oxides. Keywords: polyamorphism, low entropy glasses, liquid-liquid transitions, universal critical point, density fluctuations.

0198 | Twinkling fractals and glass transition in amorphous oxides Michael I. Ojovan University of Sheffield, UK, e-mail: [email protected] Recently Wool [1] suggested that transition of amorphous materials to glassy state is due to formation of dynamic percolating structures e.g. twinkling fractals. Fractals made of broken bonds – configurons were found at glass-liquid transition in amorphous SiO2 and GeO2[2]. These findings explain why material properties drastically change at glass transition as a result of structural reorganisations. Whether a material is liquid or solid depends primarily on the connectivity between its elementary building blocks. Solids are characterised by a high degree of connectivity whereas structural blocks in fluids have lower connectivity. Melting of a material can be considered as a percolation via broken bonds – configurons [2]. The temperature of transition from glassy to liquid state depends on quasi-equilibrium thermodynamic parameters of bonds. The connectivity of a bond lattice is characterised by its geometry and corresponding

Minaev1,2* 1State Unitary Enterprise “Scientific-production center “Spurt “, Russia 2Moscow Institute of Electronics Engineering (Technical University), Russia, e-mail: e-mail: [email protected] Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) are fixing exothermic effect below the generally accepted (despite to the Tamman – 1933) Tg in chalcogenide and oxide glass-forming As2Se3 (Ludwig – 1975), H2O (Johary – 1987), Se (Kasap – 1989) GeS2 (Liuchun Cai, Boolchand – 2002), Ca (Po3)2 (Yue – 2005), as well as pre-endo effect before exothermic effect in phosphate, silicate, metal glass, glassy water [1,2]. Thus, at heating glass (resulted in certain conditions) can be consistently observed: 1) Pre-endo effect; 2) Exo-effect (possible glass crystallization); 3) Endo-effect with conventional Tg; 4) Exo-effect of crystallization; 5) Endo- effect of crystal melting. Physicochemical nature of all these effects at the present time is not fully clear. According to the conception of polymer-polymorphoid structure of non-crystalline substance and glass-forming liquid for the individual chemical substance (ICS) [3,4], the glass is the copolymer of different structure fragments of crystal polymorph modifications (PMs) without translational symmetry (long-range order) but having intermediate- and short-range orders inherent in these PMs, interprets all these effects as a result of copolymerization- depolymerization process and interconversion of different PMs polymorphoids. 1.

0230 | Influence of residual stress on color generation of gold ruby glass Tepiwan Jitwatcharakomol1*, Mateekul Jiarawattananon2, Sirithan Jiemsirilers3 1*Department of Science Service, Bangkok, Thailand, e-mail: [email protected] 2,3Research Unit of Advanced Ceramics, Department of Materials Science, Faculty of Science, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok,Thaila, e-mails: [email protected]; [email protected] Self-striking ruby glass is always fascinating to scientist according to the difficulties of reproducibility. In this study, gold foils were used as the gold carrier in the glass composition of 72SiO2, 11CaO, 11Na2O, 1PbO, 6K2O (wt. %). The quantity of selenium, carbon and gold were varied. Dilatometric curves suggested the suitable annealing temperature, namely 570 °C. Some glasses shown self striking phenomenon meanwhile some appeared no color. Residual stresses in these glass samples were quantitatively measured by a Strain Viewer in order to clarify the significant of time and temperature in glass cooling step. In addition, regarding to PbO toxicity, Li2O3 and B2O3 were used in the selected formula. However the measured residual stress supported that among these, PbO is the most promising flux in gold ruby glass.

INVITED 0298 | Thermodynamic modeling of the initial and SPEAKER final stages of glass corrosion Reinhard Conradt RWTH Aachen University, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] Thermodynamics has been used for more than three decades as a tool to model the hydrolytic stability of glasses. Yet, until today, the prediction of the corrosion behavior of a specific glass in a given aqueous environment still is a great challenge. After giving a brief review of previous achievements, the present paper focuses on modeling both the initial and final stages of glass corrosion. It is true, thermodynamics alone is unable to model these processes on a time scale, but the stages towards which the processes move are readily predicted. It is shown that the initial stages of glass corrosion, especially at high ratios of glass surface area to solution volume, are governed (1) by the formation of concentration gradients in the sub-surface zone of the glass – which is a well-know and well investigated fact – and (2) by a distinct lateral differentiation of the glass surface. It is pointed out that the formation of glass-specific “initiator crystals” plays the role of a key mechanisms during this early stage. This is confirmed by experiments. In modeling the initial stage of glass corrosion, it is essential to correctly asses the thermodynamic activities of individual oxides j in the glass matrix. In contrast to the initial situation, the final stage of glass corrosion is modeled by a complete mineralization of the glass matrix. This stage is equivalent to the hydrolytic diagenesis of a crystalline matrix isochemical to the glass. Keywords: glass corrosion, hydrolytic stability, solubility, thermodynamics.

0153 | Surface fluorination effect on chemical durability of phosphate glass Yuki Kondo1*, Hiroyuki Ohkawa1, Jun Sasai1, Yuichi Iida2, Chikaya Tamitsuji1, Kunio Watanabe1 1*Research Center, Asahi Glass Co. Ltd., e-mail: [email protected] 2AGC Techno Glass Co. Ltd. Phosphate glass can be utilized as optical glass for lenses, filters and laser media. Chemical durability of phosphate glass is not very high, so its application is limited for practical use. On the other hand, phosphate glass which contains fluorine ions, that means fluorophosphate glass, shows high chemical durability. In this study, we investigate surface fluorination effect on chemical durability of aluminophosphate glass. Surface fluorination is carried out in fluorine gas atmosphere at high pressure in autoclave chamber. We have found that chemical durability of fluorinated aluminophosphate glass becomes remarkably high and similar to that of fluorophosphate glass. Annealing after fluorination is effective to stabilize the fluorination. While as-fluorinated glass shows some deterioration on part of the surface, subsequent annealed glass shows no deterioration on the whole surface. By means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we have confirmed that concentration of phosphorous and oxygen ions decreases, and that of aluminum and fluorine ions increases at the surface. The depth of fluorinated layer is approximately 20 nm. Since the binding energy of network former ions such as phosphorous and aluminum ions becomes similar to that of fluorophosphate glass, it is considered that fluorinated aluminophosphate glass shows remarkable improvement of chemical durability. Keywords: surface fluorination, fluorine gas, surface modification, phosphate glass, chemical durability.

0275 | Roles of non-bridging oxygen and free volume on the milling-induced enthalpy increase in simple silicate glasses Jun Matsuoka1*, Kouichi Muranaka1, Satoshi Yoshida1,2, Toru Sugawara2,1 1*Depart of Materials Science, School of Engineering, The University of Shiga Prefecture, Hikone, Shiga, Japan, e-mail: [email protected] 2Center for Glass Science and Technology, School of Engineering, The University of Shiga Prefecture, Hikone, Shiga, Japan Milling process of glass is important in preparing glass powders which are used as bonding, coating or sintering agents in electronic device manufacturing. As the process forms large area of fractured surface, it can also be used for investigating the fracture phenomena of glass. In our previous studies, we measured the heat of solution of milled glass into hydrofluoric acid, and found that milling makes the densified layer at the fractured surface. The densification increases the enthalpy of glass. In this study, composition dependence of the enthalpy increase by milling, DHmill, was studied in R2O-R’O-SiO2 glasses. In the case of glasses having the same free volume and the different non-bridging oxygen to silicon ratio, increase of the non-bridging oxygen is found to increase DHmill in the composition range of 0.67 < [NBO]/[Si] < 1.00. However, the magnitude of DHmill in this case is smaller than the case of [NBO]/[Si]=0, i.e., the case of silica glass. In the case of same [NBO]/[Si] ratio of 0.67, increase of the free volume is found to increase DHmill. Very large DHmill was observed in silica glass, and should be due to its very large free volume. Keywords: fracture, milling, densification, non-bridging oxygen, free volume, silicate.

Using the data of calorimetric enthalpy, activity of Na2O, cristobalite liquidus and immiscibility gap, the enthalpy and entropy of mixing of sodium-silicate liquids are determined as a functions of composition by a least squares method. The derived mixing properties are based only on the experimental data, and are independent of any assumption about the structure and chemical species in liquids. The enthalpy of mixing shows a minimum value of –120 kJ/mol at 35-40 mol% SiO2 and is convex upward around 80-90 mol% SiO2. The entropy of mixing shows a maximum value of + 6 J/K-mol at 75 mol%

SiO2, and decreases with decreasing SiO2 content to –5 J/K-mol at 40 mol% SiO2. This decrease in entropy can be accounted for by ideal mixing of Q4, Q3 and Q0+1+2 (=Q0+Q1+Q2) species in the liquids, and is responsible for negative temperature dependence of the partial molar Gibbs energy of mixing of Na2O observed in activity measurements. Comparison of the present results with previous values suggests that Quasi-chemical model and Adam-Gibbs model overestimate the configrational entropy of mixing of liquids. Keywords: enthalpy of mixing, entropy of mixing, thermodynamics, calorimetry, sodium silicate melts.

0231 | Mixed rare earth oxides in B2O3-La2O3 based glasses Satoru Tomeno*, Kenji Kitaoka, Kazutaka Hayashi, and Yuki Kondo Research Center, Asahi Glass Co., Ltd., 1150 Hazawacho, Kanagawa-ku, Yokohama 221-8755, Japan, e-mail: [email protected]

B2O3-La2O3 based glasses are applied to optical lenses with high refractive index and low dispersion. Viscosity at liquidus temperature (LT) is important issue which should be adjusted to appropriate value for mass production. The author previously demonstrated that mixed rare earth oxides in B2O3-La2O3 based glasses can control the LT. In this study, liquidus temperature change was investigated in detail by changing the ratio and kind of mixed rare earth oxides. The total amount of rare earth oxides is fixed. Mixed rare earth oxides ratio is substituted Ln2O3 (ex. Ln = Pr, Gd, Er, Yb) for La2O3. Liquidus temperatures of samples depend on the rare earth elements; ‘light rare earth’ or ‘heavy rare earth’. Combination of La2O3 and heavy rare earth elements

shows a minimum of LT. On the other hand, combination of La2O3 and light rare earth elements maintains a constant LT. These results can be explained by the crystalline phases of mixed rare earth elements. The LT can be controlled by the mixing ratio of Aragonite type crystal and Vaterite type crystal. Effect of mixed rare earth oxides on thermal properties is discussed in terms of glass structure.

Keywords: optical lens, B2O3-La2O3 based glass, liquidus temperature, rare earth element, crystalline phase, viscosity.

0256 | Thermal dependance of sheet resistance of FTO-coated films on glass Aneta Flejszar*, Gundula Helsch, Joachim Deubener Institute of Non-Metallic Materials, Clausthal University of Technology, Zehntnerstraße 2a, 38678 Clausthal-Zellerfeld (Germany), e-mail: [email protected] Thermal stability of FTO-coats is important for lifetime of functional glass products for domestic appliances with service temperatures up to 800 K. Process temperature is needed to crystallise amorphous deposits to become electrically conductive, while during service thermal cycling can cause degradation due to ion diffusion and changes in microstructure. In a multi method approach using 2 point probe head, SEM, AFM, XRD, SNMS we investigated the resistivity, microstructure, topography, and diffusivity of FTO-coated glasses subsequent to prolonged heat treatments. The results show that glass cations, such as Na+ and Ca2+ move towards the coat while tin ions of the coat were detected in the glass substrate. Depending on the crystallisation temperature of different deposition techniques studied these effects led to changes in the microstructure (crystal growth) and sheet resistance. Using simple temperature-time approximates lifetime predictions are presented. Keywords: FTO-films, thermal stability, interface diffusivity, sheet resistance.

0084 | Properties of zinc silicate glasses and melts Doris Ehrt*, Sylvia Flügel Otto-Schott-Institut, Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena, Fraunhoferstr. 6, D-07743 Jena, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] Silicate glasses with high ZnO content are of interest for various applications, ranging from technical glasses to optical and glass ceramics. From structural effect ZnO is an intermediate oxide and can theoretically act as network modifier and also as network former depending on glass composition, but cannot form a glass per se. Zinc silicate glasses and melts were investigated beginning with the binary eutectic composition (in mol%)

0254 | Optical Properties of nanoporous TiO2 thin films on glass using different pore-forming agents A. Matthias1*, J. Deubener1, D. Kip2 1Institute of Non-Metallic Materials, Clausthal University of Technology, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Electrical Engineering, Helmut Schmidt University Hamburg, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] Nanoporous titania thin films on glass are of interest for optical and electronic applications. Pore sizes and their distribution was found to control refractive index and wavelength dispersion. To study the effect of different pore-forming agents synthesis of tetrabutylorthotitanate as Ti precursor, diethanolamine as chelating agent, and ethanol, butanol, terpineol, 1-decanol as solvents were perfomed. Different pore-forming agents were added to the solution, such as poly-ethylenglycol (PEG), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), and pluronic P123. Nanostructure of the porous films using sol-gel dip-coating on glass was studied by microscopy (FESEM, AFM), while optical properties were measured using UV-VIS-NIR spectroscopy and ellipsometry. The porosity of TiO2 film increases with increasing pore-forming agent fraction up to 0.6, which was related to a refractive index change of Dn550nm = 2.15. The results contribute tailoring glass surfaces for fibre based optical gas sensors.

Keywords: nanoporous TiO2 thin films, sol-gel, PEG, CTAB, P123.

INVITED 0079 | Surface or internal nucleation and SPEAKER crystallization of glass-ceramics W. Höland*, V.R. Rheinberger, C. Ritzberger, E. Apel Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Research and Development, Bendererstr. 2, Li-9494 Schaan, Principality of Liechtenstein Fluoroapatite (Ca5(PO4)3F) was precipitated in glass-ceramics via internal crystallization of base glasses. The crystals grew in needlelike morphology in the direction of the crystallographic c-axis. HR-TEM, SEM, XRD, and solid state NMR investigations were used to indentify two different reaction mechanisms: precipitation via a disordered primary apatite crystal and a second mechanism in the form of a solid state parallel reaction to rhenanite (NaCa(PO4)3) precipitation. In contrast to the internal nucleation used in the formation of fluoroapatite, surface crystallization was induced to precipitate a phosphate-free oxyapatite of the NaY9(SiO4)6O2-type. Internal nucleation and crystallization has shown to be a very useful tool for developing high-strength lithium disilicate (Li2Si2O5) glass-ceramics. A very controlled process was conducted to transform the lithium metasilicate glass-ceramic precursor material into the final product of the lithium disilicate glass-ceramic without the major phase of the precursor material. The phase formation processes were studied with XRD (Rietveld method), SEM, HR-SEM and solid state NMR. The combination of all these methods allowed the driving forces of the internal nucleation and crystallization mechanisms to be explained. An amorphous phosphate primary phase was discovered in the process. Nucleation started at the interface between the amorphous phosphate phase and the glass matrix. Ketwords: analysis, biomaterials, crystallization, glass-ceramics, mechanisms, strength.

In this lecture

an overview on Glass-Ceramic will be presented, responding to these specific questions: What are glass- ceramics? How to design of glass-ceramics?

0392 | Internally nucleated alkali sulfate glass ceramics Lothar Wondraczek Department of Materials Science, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany Knowledge on glass systems in which internal nanocrystallization occurs at high nucleation rates and, hence, leads to high crystal volume fraction and at the same time high crystal number density is still rare. In this talk, a novel such system will be presented. It will be shown that nanocrystalline alkali and alkaline earth sulfates can be precipitated in mixed-network former P2O5-SO3 glasses. Crystallization occurs as a result of bimodal phase separation, and leads to a relict structure of homogeneously distributed crystallites, as will be shown on the basis of analytical high-resolution TEM-EDS, SEAD and EBSD analyses. Crystallization kinetics are assessed by isothermal experiments, and an effort will be made to separate kinetics of phase separation from the kinetics of crystal growth. Two potential applications will be demonstrated: • the development of alkali sulfate – based glass ceramic phosphors with very high emission intensity; and • the use as low-temperature sealing material with strongly improved thermochemical stability. Keywords: glass ceramic, nucleation, nanocrystalline.

0252 | Effect of lanthanide ions on the crystallisation of oxyfluoride nano-glassceramics. photonic properties A. de Pablos-Martín*, F. Muñoz, A. Durán, M.J. Pascual Instituto de Cerámica y Vidrio (CSIC), Kelsen 5, 28049 Madrid, Spain, e-mail: [email protected] The design of oxyfluoride glass-ceramics doped with lanthanide ions is becoming important within materials with photonic applications, like solid state lasers, fibres, etc. Oxyfluoride glass-ceramics combine the transparency and mechanical and chemical resistance of the alumosilicate glasses with the low phonon energy of the fluoride crystals besides having good solubility for lanthanide ions. Recently, the crystallisation of NaYF4 in alumosilicate matrices has been emphasized, triggering the development of glass- ceramics, with double fluorides as crystalline phases.

This work is focussed on the crystallisation of double fluorides in the system SiO2-Al2O3-Na2O-K2O-LaF3.

One composition presents mixed alkali effect and after thermal treatments very close to Tg, NaLaF4 crystallises.

The second composition possesses K2O as only modifier oxide and shows the crystallisation of α,β- KLaF4. Both compositions develop transparent glass-ceramics due to the nanometric size of the fluoride crystals. The addition of lanthanide ions, like Tm3+, Yb3+ and Eu3+, modify the glassy structure greatly influencing the crystallisation behaviour. A comparative study of the thermal and structural characteristics between un- doped and doped glasses and glass-ceramics will be shown from dilatometry, viscosimetry, DTA, DSC, TEM, NMR and Neutron Diffraction results. The optical properties and the possibilities of up-conversion phenomena of these materials will be also discussed. In particular, the distribution of the doping ions between the glassy matrix and nano-crystals through luminescence and emission decay curves has been evaluated. The possible application of the obtained nano glass-ceramics as waveguides has been also investigated. Keywords: crystallisation, oxyfluoride glass-ceramics, fluoride crystals, lanthanide ions, up-conversion.

Experiments were focused on constant heating at 5K/min, Fa = 10-25 vol% alumina and mean particle size of » 2 µm for glass and alumina particles as typically used for LTCC. Compo­sites ful­ly densified at » 810 and 830 °C for Fa = 0.10 and 0.25, respectively, not essentially influ­en­ced by dissolution of alumina and glass crystallization. Wollastonite crystals were found to grow from the former glass particle surface above 840°C, whereas alumina did not serve as an active nucleation substrate. Above 900°C, however, pronounced growth of anor­thite crystals from alumina particles is evident. Diffusion pair experiments on calcium-alumo-borosilicate glasses of different Al2O3 concentration indicate that the Al2O3 concentration of the residual glass canbe substantially increased close to the alumina particles. Rietveld analyses of XRD data for Fa = 0.25 conformingly revealed that anorthite, reaching 60 wt% at 1050 °C, precipitates at the expenses of alumina, which declines from »33wt% to 8wt%, and wollastonite, which fully declines from its maximum of »19 wt%. For Fa = 0.1, the anorthite crystallization and decay of wollastonite is delayed until 1200 °C where anorthite reaches » 40 wt%.

LZSA (Li2O·ZrO2·SiO2·Al2O3) glass-ceramic system has shown high potential to obtain LTCC laminate tapes for several applications, such as screen-printed electronic components, due to its low sintering temperature (below 1000 °C). Because of this and their relatively low temperature of sintering, LZSA glass-ceramics can be considered a potential candidate for obtaining multi-layered structures processed by LOM technology (Laminated

Objects Manufacturing) for LTCC. Thus, the crystallization kinetics of a 16.9Li2O·5.0ZrO2·65.1SiO2·8.6Al2O3 glass-ceramic composition was investigated by means of different techniques including differential thermal analysis in non-isothermal conditions. Results showed a crystallization activation energy of about 285 kJ.mol–1 and an Avrami parameter of 1, in good agreement with another techniques.

LiFePO4 glass-ceramic powder was developed for the cathode material of the rechargeable lithium-ion battery (LiB). The glass-ceramic was prepared through crystallizing Li2O-Fe2O3-P2O5 glass powder with an average particle size of 2 micrometers under reducing atmosphere. Each glass-ceramic particle consisted of olivine-type LiFePO4 crystallites of which size is in the order of several-hundred nanometers. The crystallinity was more than 90 mass%. It was found that the glass-ceramic particles were covered by an amorphous layer with a thickness of about 20nm. The electrode fabricated with the glass-ceramic powder worked as a cathode of LiB showing discharged voltage of 3.4V. It was also confirmed that the glass-ceramic shows higher water resistance than a conventional cathode material (LiCoO2). After a hot-water immersion test, the decrease of the cathode capacity of the glass-ceramic was less than that of the LiCoO2. This glass-ceramic powder is expected as a novel candidate of the cathode material for LiB. Keywords: lithium-ion battery, cathode, glass-ceramic, olivine.

0132 | Glass-to-metal seals with titanium and Ti-6Al-4V alloy B. L. Metcalfe*, P. M. Mallinson and J. A. Fernie Material Science Research Division, AWE Aldermaston, e-mail: [email protected] A review of the literature on glass-to-metal sealing with titanium and titanium alloys has shown only limited research and widely varying results. Sealing to titanium and titanium alloys is complicated by the high chemical reactivity of titanium which can lead to severe interfacial reactions which degrade the integrity of the interface. Also titanium undergoes an allotropic phase transition at 882.5 °C with a significant volume change. The brittle nature of the oxide layer, formed on titanium above approximately 590 °C in air, can lead to surface cracking. In this investigation a number of different glass compositions, including silicate and boro- aluminate based glasses, which have been proposed for use in glass-to-metal seals are compared to more recent compositions derived for bio-medical use. The high reactivity of the silicate based glasses required very strict control of the reaction conditions to minimise interfacial reactions whereas the less reactive boro- aluminate glasses allowed more flexibility in the sealing conditions and ultimately produced higher quality seals. Investigation of the sealing conditions has allowed the optimisation for sealing to titanium for different glass systems by minimisation of unfavourable interfacial reactions. Keywords: titanium alloys, silicate, boro-aluminate, glasses, glass-ceramic.

crystallization of Lu-Si-Al-B-O starting glass compositions. Glass samples containing up to 95%wt of LPS, LYSO or LuAG can be obtained thanks to the use of aerodynamic levitation associated to a laser heating system. DSC and XRD measurements have first been performed to select valuable starting compositions. The selected glass compositions have then been subjected to specific heat treatments in order to control the crystallization, the ultimate purpose being to obtain a maximum crystallization rate while keeping transparency to ensure scintillation properties. The crystallization processes have been studied in details by in situ high temperature XRD, transmission electron microscopy and NMR and are discussed here since their first steps. Properties, interest and application perspective of such materials are finally discussed. Keywords: vitrification, crystallization, transparent glass ceramic, scintillating materials.

0285 | HT-XRD study of the Early stage of the crystallization process in lithium alumosilicate glass-ceramics Martina Dressler1*, Bernd Ruedinger2, Joachim Deubener1 1Institute of Non-Metallic Materials, Clausthal University of Technology, e-mail: [email protected] 2Schott AG, Corporate Research and Technology Development, Mainz The control of nucleation and crystallization processes is essential for the production of glass-ceramics. High temperature X-ray diffraction (HT-XRD) is a useful tool to analyze in-situ the transformation kinetics of fast crystallizing glasses. In this study the evolution of mean crystal sizes, lattice parameters, and crystalline fractions of model lithium alumosilicate (LAS) glass-ceramics were measured under isothermal conditions and at constant heating rates. With focus on the early stage of crystallization, number densities, steady state nucleation rates, and induction times were calculated. Avrami analyses were performed to reveal partitioning of different growth mechanism of h-quartz-ss crystals for prolonged heating regimes. It was found that the growth of crystals of sizes up to 30 nm (fractions < 80%) is initially controlled by interface processes and later by diffusion. The presented two-step growth mechanism can be used to tailor ceramization programs of glass-ceramics for special applications. Keywords: HT-XRD, glass-ceramics, crystallization kinetics, LAS-system.

Komatsu1 1Nagaoka University of Technology, Department of material science of technology, Japan 2BAM Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing, Berlin, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] Crystallization of lithium iron phosphate glasses was examined in order to improve the performance of LiFePO4 glass-ceramics for practical use in lithium ion secondary batteries. 33Li2O-33Fe2O3-1Nb2O5- 33P2O5 glass powders were prepared by conventional melt-quenching, crushing and ball milling. XRD, DTA and microscopy measurements of glass powders for various particle sizes were carried out in air, Ar and a H2 containing atmosphere. In the latter two cases, LiFePO4 and Li3Fe2(PO4)3 were found by XRD for all powders, while only Li3Fe2(PO4)3 were evident for fine powders in air. DTA curves, however, show one sharp peak in any case. It is found that the crystalli­­zation peak temperatures (Tp) in Ar and in H2 containing atmosphere decrease with decreasing particle size as expected from the surface crystallization observed in bulk samples. In contrast, Tp in air does not sig­ni­ficantly decreases with decreasing particle size. This finding could hint on a progressive oxi­da­tion of iron which can increase glass viscosity and Tp. Quite similar DTA curves were observed for Ar and H2 containing atmosphere, indicating that H2 could not affect the overall crystallization ki­ne­tics at 10K/min by reducing Fe3+ and viscosity. Keywords: lithium iron phosphate, lithium ion secondary battery, cathode material, glass-ceramics, crystallization.

The production of active rare earth (RE) nanocrystallites in a glass matrix can give rise to high luminescence efficiency. This class of materials is of great importance in photonics, because they combine the mechanical and optical properties of the glass with a crystal-like environment for the RE ions, where their higher cross-sections can be exploited in order to fabricate more compact devices.

Semiconductor nanoclusters of SnO2 can also be used to transfer energy to RE ions thus compensating efficiently for the small cross section of RE transitions. If RE ions can be doped into semiconductor nanoclusters, then band gap excitation may result in efficient energy transfer thus yielding intense luminescence from the RE ion.

In the present work, we present recent results obtained in developing crack free SiO2 – SnO2 glass- ceramic waveguides with high SnO2 content based on the sol-gel techniques and activated by rare earth ions. The m-line technique is used for the determination of thicknesses and refractive indices. Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopies in the waveguiding configuration are performed to provide information on the structural evolutions of the matrix which result from the formation and the growth of the SnO2 nanocrystals. In situ high-temperature XRD and TEM data have been used to identify the initiation of crystallization.

0406 | Preparation and characterization of lead tungsten fluorophosphate glass-ceramics Roger Gomes Fernandes1, Fábia Castro Cassanjes1, Gaël Yves Poirier1* 1Department of Science and Technology – UNIFAL-MG, Campus de Poços de Caldas, Poços de Caldas-MG, e-mail: [email protected] Transparent oxyfluoride glass-ceramics containing nanocrystals of heavy metal fluorides were largely investigated due to efficient luminescent properties of rare earthes incorporated inside these nanocrystals. Several oxide glass matrix including silicates, germanates, borates and phosphates can be used as glass formers. The main advantages of phosphate glasses are their small liquidus viscosity and softening temperatures as well as high solubility of heavy metal and rare earth fluorides. However, their applications are limited by their poor chemical and thermal stability.

In this work, transparent glasses were prepared in the ternary system Pb(PO3)2-WO3-PbF2 by the melt- quenching method. Compositions were adjusted to obtain thermally and chemically stable glasses. The dominant crystallization mechanism has been obtained by thermal analyzes of glass samples with different grain sizes. The increase of lead fluoride content results in a progressive internal crystallization mechanism.

Further analyzes by DRX and TEM confirmed that PbF2 nanocrystals can be formed by heat treatment on these samples and that transparent glass-ceramics can be prepared in this system. Keywords: glass-ceramic, phosphate, tungsten, lead fluoride.

Transparent glass-ceramics based on crystals of spinel (MgAl2O4) solid solution in a highly siliceous residual glass has been produced from compositions in the SiO2-Al2O3-ZnO-MgO-TiO2-ZrO2 system. The heat-treatment experiment was carried out on the base glass in the temperature range of 950-11000C, at an interval of 500C for 20 hours. Effect of processing parameters on the properties of the material like density, CTE, optical transmissionand refractive index (R.I.) have been reported. High transparency (>80%) has been achieved when the glass was heat-treated at 9500C for 20 h. FT-IR and XRD studies revealed the presence of spinel phase in the heat-treated glass-ceramics. Appearance of cubic crystallites in nano-dimension (20-50 nm) embedded in the glass matrix has been observed from TEM (SAED) and FESEM examination. Hardness values range from 9.63–10.5 GPa while fracture toughness range from 0.85-0.99 Mpam0.5 as determined from micro indentation techniques. Elastic modulus of ranges 66.88-80.26 GPa have been determined from depth sensitive indentation technique. Flexural strength (3 point) of the glass-ceramics heat-treated at 9500C was obtained 212 MPA. Potential products include solar cells, active matrix liquid crystal displays and transparent armors.

Zanotto3 1IFMA, Inst Federal do Maranhão, Departamento de Física, São Luis, MA, Brasil, [email protected] 2Faculdade de Engenharia, UNESP, Univ Estadual Paulista, Departamento de Materiais e Tecnologia, SP, Brasil 3Laboratório de Materiais Vítreos, DEMa, Univ Federal de São Carlos, São Carlos, SP, Brasil, www.lamav.ufscar.br The determination of key parameters that govern the crystallization kinetics of glasses, the nucleation and growth rates as a function of temperature, I(T) and U(T), respectively, is of great interest in science and technology. An interesting method has been proposed by Ray et al. to determine I(T) in glasses that exhibit internal nucleation using a non-isothermal DTA technique. In this paper, we review the derivation of such method and propose a correction. In order to compare the experimental results with the two different derivations (the original and ours), we determined the number of quenched-in nuclei, Nq, in a Li2Ož2SiO2

(LS2) stoichiometric glass. Bulk glass samples were treated on a DTA furnace according to the following schedule: (1) heated from 24oC up to 620°C at 20°C/min; (2) developed at 620°C for 10 min (crystal-growth treatment); (3) cooled at 20°C/min until 380°C, where they were maintained for 5 min; (4) heated at 15°C/ min to 800°C (above the crystallization peak, Tp = 685°C). Then we repeated all the steps above for different samples, changing the time (tG) of the crystal-growth treatment to 15, 20, 30, 35 and 40 min. We found that the values of Nq estimated from our approach are approximately two times larger than the one derived from the original equation of Ray et al. Finally, we propose that the original expressions must be modified to take into account the crystal morphology and crystal impingement. Keywords: crystal nucleation rates, DTA, lithium dissilicate glass.

0147 | Influence of antimony ion on coloration of optical glass Satoko Konoshita*, Fumio Sato, Satoru Yoshihara, and Akihiko Sakamoto Nippon Electric Glass Co., Ltd., Otsu, Shiga, 520-8639, Japan, e-mail: [email protected]

We investigated the relation between the antimony content and the coloration in a SiO2-B2O3-Li2O optical glass, and estimated the mechanism of the coloration. Antimony oxide has been used as a refining agent in optical glasses. Nowadays, Sb-free glasses are required because of the environmental issue. However, some optical glasses show yellowish color when antimony oxide is removed. The glass samples were melted in a platinum or an SiO2 crucible. The Sb-free sample melted in the platinum crucible showed an absorption band at 360nm and indicated yellowish color, whereas the sample melted in the SiO2 crucible was colorless

regardless of the antimony content. This means that the coloration in the Sb-free glass occurs under the presence of platinum ion. According to the Ellingham diagram, antimony ions oxidize platinum ions when they coexist. Hence, the mechanism of the coloration is inferred as follows. In Sb-free glasses, platinum ions exist as Pt2+ which has absorption at 360nm, resulting in yellowish color. However, under the presence of antimony ions, platinum ions exist as Pt4+ showing no coloration, because the absorption band lies in the ultraviolet region. Keywords: optical glass, transmittance, platinum, antimony oxide.

The structures and optical properties of Nb2O5-SrO-P2O5 glasses have been generally investigated by using Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, O1s X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and 31P solid state NMR. From the results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, adding Nb2O5 to the glasses as the intermediate results in the form of P-O-Nb bonds and Nb-O-Nb bonds. When the content of P2O5 >50 mole%, the Nb2O5 will play the role of glass network modifier. Moreover, the NMR spectra indicated that the glass structures of Q3 and Q2 will be transferred to those of Q2 and Q1, respectively, as the content of Nb2O5 increases. However, the numbers of Nb-O-Nb bonds and [NbO6]3d bonds will be increased when the content of P2O5 <50mole%, due to the [Nb2O5 will play the role of glass network former from the intermediate. When

P2O5 decreases to 30 mole%, [NbO6] transferred to [NbO4] and produces new bonds Nb-O-Sr. P2O5/SrO ratio is also utilized to estimate the absorption intensity of the glasses. When the ratio is greater than 1, the addition of Nb2O5 will result in the strong absorption during the wavelength region of 400~850nm. The absorption peak will significantly increases as the content of Nb2O5 increases. On the contrary, the phenomenon of the absorption will not occur and the transmittance of the glass will slightly decrease.

In particular, glasses doped with rare earth ions containing metallic nanoparticles have been exploited because the rare earth luminescence may be intensified due to the presence of nanoparticles. The luminescence efficiency may be influenced by energy transfer between the nanoparticles and the rare earth ions. Soda-lime silicate glasses are attractive materials for the fabrication of low cost integrated optical amplifiers and lasers by using the ion exchange technique due to their good chemical durability and adaptability. One of the main problems associated with this kind of glass is the narrow emission bandwidth at 1.55 micron that reduces their potential application in the wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) system if compared with other oxide glasses. Nevertheless, this intrinsic limit may be overcomed by adding another compounds to the glass composition. In order to increase the bandwidth, we have developed a new kind of SLAS glass adding different percentages of Aluminum. In this work the spectroscopic properties of Soda-lime silicate (SLAS) glasses co-doped with silver and Er3+, namely absorption and emission spectra were measured. Attention is focused in the increase of Er3+ luminescence in the visible and infrared region when silver is added to the glassy host. Additionally, the influence of Al in the bandwidth of the transition at 1.55 mm is analyzed. Keywords: glasses, erbium, silver, luminescence.

The plasmonic absorption of the nanoparticles can be monitored at different wavelengths by varying their shape or the index of the dielectric matrix surrounding them. It makes it possible to observe Resonant Raman scattering of the nanoparticles and to study the interaction between the nanoparticle and the glassy matrix. In this presentation we will show the polarized absorption of different glasses containing metallic nanoparticles and discuss the role of the different parameters.

In addition, the silicate glass exhibits a good temperature stability, chemical durability, and compatibility with optical fibers. It makes the doped silicate glass a very attractive material for waveguide amplifiers and lasers. In a silicate glass matrix the laser active metals are coordinated by oxygen ligands. The local chemical environment strongly influences active optical properties such as luminescence wavelength, absorption and emission cross-sections, bandwidth, up-conversion probability, and lifetime of excited states. We quantified glass components effects on these properties and interpreted them using the ligand field and optical basicity theories. We utilized these composition-property models in the formulation of optimized glass matrices that are tailored for a particular laser active element. We developed a sodium-zincsilicate glass co-doped with Er and Yb that is suitable for the fabrication of low loss channel amplifiers with the net gain up to 6.7 dB/38 mm long sample. We also report the development of optimal glass matrices suitable for the transition metals Cu and Cr and the rare earth elements Tm, Dy, Nd, Pr, and Ho.

The lithium and potassium-lithium tetraborate glasses (Li2B4O7 and KLiB4O7), doped with transitional elements (Cu, Mn and Cr) were obtained from corresponding crystalline compounds by standard glass technology. Tetraborate glasses, doped with Cu, Mn and Cr of high optical quality were synthesised in the air with using corundum crucibles and technological conditions, developed by authors. The Cu, Mn and Cr impurities were added to the basic melt composition in the form of the corresponding oxide compounds (MnO,

CuO and Cr2O3) in amounts 0.4 and 1.6 mol. %. The doped tetraborate glasses were obtained by fast cooling of the corresponding melt, heated more than 100 K higher that the melting temperature (Tmelt = 1190 K and 1080 K for Li2B4O7 and KLiB4O7 compositions, respectively) for exceeding of the glass transition point. On the basis of analysis of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical spectra (absorption, luminescence excitation and emission) as well as luminescence kinetics of the Li2B4O7 and KLiB4O7 glasses, doped with Cu, Mn and Cr, it was shown the following: (i) The Cu impurity is incorporated into the tetraborate glass network as Cu2+ (3d9) paramagnetic and Cu+ (3d10) luminescence centres. The EPR spectra of Cu2+ centres are almost identical in glasses with

Li2B4O7:Cu and KLiB4O7:Cu compositions and are characteristic for glassy compounds. Parameters of 2+ the Cu EPR spectra (g-values, hyperfine constants and peak-to-peak linewidths) in Li2B4O7:Cu and

KLiB4O7:Cu glasses are determined. Characteristic absorption band, peaked near 750 nm is assigned to 2 2 2+ the B1g → B2g transition of Cu centres in the tetraborate glass network. An intense UV absorption at λ < 350 nm is related to the Cu2+ → O2– charge-transfer band. Emission bands, peaked near 420 and 470 + nm, in the Li2B4O7:Cu and KLiB4O7:Cu glasses belong to Cu centres with different local environments in the second coordination shell. (ii) The Mn impurity is incorporated into the tetraborate glass network as Mn2+ (3d5) and Mn3+ (3d4) centres. Characteristic for glassy compounds EPR spectra of the Mn2+ paramagnetic centres are almost identical 2+ in glasses with Li2B4O7:Mn and KLiB4O7:Mn compositions and have been attributed to the isolated Mn ions with broad distribution of crystal field parameters and small clusters of the Mn2+ ions in the trigonally- distorted octahedral sites of the tetraborate glass network. The broad absorption band with maximum 5 5 3+ around 465 nm is related to the Eg → T2g spin-allowed transition of the Mn ions and intense absorption at λ < 350 nm is assigned to the Mn3+ → O2– charge-transfer band. Complex emission bands in both 4 6 Li2B4O7:Mn and KLiB4O7:Mn glasses, peaked around 600 nm belong to the T1g → A1g transition of the Mn2+ centres. (iii) The Cr impurity is incorporated into the tetraborate glass network, generally, as Cr3+ (3d3) centres and characterised by typical for glassy compounds EPR and optical spectra. Features of EPR and optical 3+ spectra as well as luminescence kinetics of the Cr centres in the Li2B4O7:Cr and KLiB4O7:Cr glasses are considered and discussed.

In this study, we propose a new mathematical model of dissolved SO3 transport in a glass melting furnace, considering secondary decomposition of sulfate. The calculated concentration of SO3 agrees with measured data near the maximum temperature area, hot spot, in an actual glass tank furnace. The effect of onset temperature of secondary decomposition, the maximum solubility of SO3 and concentration of inlet SO3 on sulfate fining is quantified by simulation.

0094 | Mathematical models of glass melt refining Kloužek J.*, Nemec L., Jebavá M. Laboratory of Inorganic Materials, Joint Workplace of the Institute of Chemical Technology in Prague, and the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry of the ASCR, v.v.i., Czech Republic, e-mail: [email protected] The mathematical modeling of the refining process is important tool for evaluation of the industrial melting efficiency and the glass quality control. The process description is based on the simulation of the kinetics of the single bubble behaviour. Complete mathematical models simulate mass transfer of single gases between bubble and the melt. The application of the model requires precise values of gas properties, namely their diffusion coefficients, solubilities and bulk concentrations. The values are acquired by difficult and time consuming laboratory methods having often limited accuracy. That is why simplified model coming from direct observations of bubble behaviour in melt has been developed. The simplified model of bubble behaviour is based on the assumption of the bubble stationary composition, which is independent from its initial composition and under given temperature and pressure depends only on concentration of gases dissolved in the melt. The application of the simplified model plays important role when formulating the particle distribution models as will be presented in the second part of this work. The real glass melting tank involves a nonisothermal space with continuous melt flow. Bubbles originated from glass batch or from surface of refractory materials are reacting with the melt and distributed by glass flow and buoyancy force. As a result of this process, the bubble concentration field is formed in the melting space. Two bubble distribution models are presented: 1. The model using particle tracing (the Model of Bubble Representatives) and 2. The model based on flow of polydisperse bubble phase through the melting space (the Convective Model of Bubble Distribution). The verification of bubble distribution models shows that the model of bubble representatives exhibits very good accuracy for calculation of bubble distribution in the real melting space. The accuracy of the convective model of bubble distribution is improving with increasing number of classes of bubble sizes, used for the simulation. Keywords: Glass Melting, Bubble Removal, Modelling.

0235 | An empirical multi gas change model for bubble in soda lime silicate glass Shingo Urata*, Shuji Kabashima Production Technology Center, Asahi Glass Co., Ltd., 1-1 Suehiro-cho,Tsurumi-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa, 230-0045, Japan, e-mail: [email protected] Numerical model of bubble gas change is a key technology to estimate bubble defect source. Because diffusion coefficient, physical solubility and concentration of each gas are essential properties for the modeling, much effort has been continued to measure them accurately. Nonetheless, the accurate properties are not enough to simulate bubble gas change, quantitatively. This may be due to some simplifications in the numerical model. To avoid this difficulty, JEBAVÁ et al. have proposed an empirical procedure to determine

the properties based on two experiments, high temperature direct observation of bubble diameter change and subsequent gas analysis of the bubble observed. Since this method is effective for practical application, we applied it to construct an empirical multi gas change model for commercial soda lime silicate glass. The method of subsequent gas analysis by JEBAVÁ et al. requires a certain amount of skill and time. Thus, alternatively, we used conventional method for bubble gas change test by using Pt crucible. In addition, we optimize the properties by iterative calculation using genetic algorithm to reproduce both final bubble diameter and gas composition. The modified empirical method enables us to construct a bubble gas change model with reasonable accuracy. Keywords: bubble, gas, mathematical model, simulation.

0015 | Mass transfer of a rising bubble in a molten glass Franck Pigeonneau Surface du Verre et Interfaces, UMR 125 CNRS/Saint-Gobain, France, e-mail: [email protected] The mass transfer around a rising bubble is studied within the field of glass melting processes where the oxidation-reduction reaction of iron oxides is taken into account. The Sherwood number is determined as a function of the Péclet number based on the terminal rising velocity of the bubble. Two different techniques are used: the first based on the boundary layer theory and the second using a finite element method. In order to take into account the redox reaction in an unified framework, a modified Péclet number is found as a function of two dimensionless numbers linked to the equilibrium constant of the chemical reaction and the glass oxygen saturation. The Sherwood number, taking into account the chemical reactions, increases with iron content as well as with glass reduction. The behaviour of an isolated rising bubble in molten glass is examined both experimentally and numerically. The theoretical model to describe bubble shrinkage is based on the preceding results. Bubble size as a function of time is presented where two stages are observed: at short times, the bubble shrinks; at longer times, the bubble size reaches a steady-state value. The comparison between experimental and numerical results is in good agreement when the iron content in glass changes. Keywords: fining, redox reaction, mass transfer, bubble, numerical simulation, boundary layer theory, Sherwood number.

0095 | Space bubble removal as an industrial process Nemec L.*, Jebavá M., Cincibusová P. Laboratory of Inorganic Materials, Joint Workplace of the Institute of Chemical Technology in Prague, and the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry of the ASCR, v.v.i., Czech Republic, e-mail: [email protected] The bubble removal from glass melts appears almost exclusively as the separation process. Consequently, the process of separation of small bubbles from usually thick layers of viscous melt is extremely slow and energy consuming. Both energy consumption and performance of the fining process may be quantitatively described by means of process kinetics and utilisation of the fining space. The descriptions of fining kinetics involve different models of bubble behavior where the bubble growth rate caused by both physical and chemical factors plays a decisive role. Consequently, the experimentally measured bubble growth rates under given conditions give a very useful indication of the glass fining ability. This value gives also preliminary information about processes of bubble nucleation, melt foaming and dissolution enhancement. The glass saturation by gases, the reduced pressure and potentially the application of the additive external force manifest themselves the powerful factors of fining kinetics. The bubble separation is a macroscopic process dependent from both the space size and bubble movement. Under routine industrial conditions, the forces causing bubble rising and glass flow may be involved in a relative quantity entitled utilisation of the space. The utilisation of the space expresses quantitatively, how the character of glass flow and space size influence the bubble separation process. The application of transversal and longitudinal temperature gradients in a simple model space reveals the beneficial flow structures showing the high utilisation of the space and consequently, the reduced energy consumption, as well as high fining performance of the model space. Keywords: glass melting, bubble removal, modelling.

0393 | ICG TC21 Modeling of glass melting processes how reliable and validated simulation tools can help to improve glass melting efficiency and productivity Erik H.P.H. Muijsenberg1 1Glass Service Inc. Rokytnice 60, 75501 Vsetin, Czech Republic, e-mail: [email protected] (Chairman of TC21) Mathematical modeling of glass furnaces started around 1965. The question is what can these models do and how reliably are the prediction of such models? In 1990 the ICG (International Commission on Glass) started the TC number 21 focusing on “Modeling of Glass Melting Processes”. The aim of TC21 is to share and exchange current practice and to develop the theory and application of mathematical modeling of glass furnaces. The activities of TC21 are carried often our as round robin tests where model results of members are compared to each other and in some case with actual measured data. A step wise validation of different components of the models related to the whole glass furnace is undertaken. The idea is to come up with improvements to improve the mathematical modeling of each member. The paper will show some validation experiments carried out by several authors over the years within, but also without TC21. These validations show a fairly good agreement between measurements and models. Certain errors are more likely to come from unknown glass properties and boundary conditions, than from the mathematical model itself. As example we show the error that can be caused when we do not know the glass properties very well. We also will show how bubbles can be modelled and how we validated results in the past Keywords: ICG TC21, modeling, validation, furnace optimization, glass quality, bubbles.

0357 | Modeling of the behaviour of a single bubble in a glass melt Detlef Koepsel1* 1*SchottAG, Research and Technology Development, Mainz, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] The modeling of the fining process can be performed in two different ways: a) The removal of large bubble ensembles from the glass melt can be modeled using population balance approaches. They usually do not describe the physico-chemical mechanisms of gas transport between a single bubble and the glass melt very precisely but they are especially qualified to predict changes of the total bubble number and the bubble size distribution. b) Models describing the behaviour of single bubbles provide precise information on the change of bubble size and gas composition in the bubble if the physico-chemical properties of the gases in the glass melt, e.g. redox data, gas solubilities and diffusivities are known. In the present case a model for a single bubble is explained with special focus on: • the physico-chemical description of the transport of the following gases between a bubble and the glass

melt: O2, N2, CO2, SO2, H2O, H2S, Sx, NaCl, HCl; problems to model the driving force for the diffusion of

O2, SO2 and NaCl/HCl are discussed in detail. • viscosity and inertial effects, which have to be considered to model the “freezing” of a bubble. • the influence of subatmospheric pressure. • the formation of “reactive condensates” in the bubble in dependence on cooling rate and redox conditions. Keywords: bubble behaviour, fining, gas solubility, gas diffusivity, redox conditions.

We used several glasses covering a wide range of compositions across the Li2O-B2O3 phase equilibrium diagram – from very reluctant glass forming compositions, with

R = Li2O/B2O3 as high as 2.0, to very good glass forming compositions with R = 0.25. Glasses were prepared by the traditional method of melting and by sol-gel. The glass stability parameters were calculated using the characteristic temperature points of DSC thermograms on heating: Tg (glass transition), Tx (onset of the crystallization peak), Tc (maximum of the crystallization peak) and Tm (onset or endpoint of the melting peak). The DSC experiments were carried out at 10 °C/min with powdered samples of 22 to 35 mm. We found that 7 stability parameters give the same trend of GS with composition from R = 0.25 to 0.5. For R > 0.5 the GS is approximately constant within the error limits indicating that composition does not significantly affect the glass forming ability in this compositional range. This general finding qualitatively agrees with our previous successful experience of preparing these glasses continuously with compositions up to and including R = 2.8 (74 mol. % lithia).

Manfrim, Juliana S. dos Santos, and Carlos K. Suzuki Universidade Estadual de Campinas – Unicamp, Laboratório de Materiais e Dispositivos Fotônicos, Campinas-SP, e-mail: [email protected]

Silica-titania (SiO2–TiO2) glass is an interesting material for waveguides fabrication due to its high and easy tunability of the refractive index. However, for bulk glasses, crystallization and opacity promoted by a high TiO2 doping (> 12 wt. %) still presents a challenge. In this research, high-purity SiO2–TiO2 glass was synthesized by VAD (vapor-phase axial deposition), a flame aerosol method widely used for preform fabrication. SiCl4 and TiCl4 halides were used as precursors for producing SiO2-TiO2 nanoparticles by a flame (oxy-hydrogen) hydrolysis and oxidation reaction. For TiO2 content above 12 wt. %, TEM images of the soot powders showed TiO2 segregation and crystallization in anatase phase, identified by XRD. It was observed that the crystallization level is highly strengthened due to the long resident time of the rotating preform at high flame temperature and intensified in the subsequent consolidation process (1400 ºC for 2 h). By means of this ascertainment, it was possible to decrease the crystallites size and reduce the crystallization level on samples with high TiO2 content (> 20 wt. %) by changing the burner-target distance and flame H2/O2 gas ratio. This result shows the viability of achieving a clear SiO2–TiO2 glass with high refractive index and optical transparency by controlling the crystallization during the deposition process. Keywords: silica-titania, nanoparticles, crystallization, flame hydrolysis, optical fiber.

The containerless processing suppresses the nucleation in molten salt and enables rapid quenching of the melt. In addition, we obtain bulk sample of glasses using the processing, while by using twin-roller quenching small flakes of glasses are only obtained. The vitrification of the binary glass of La2O3-TiO2 has been reported by the twin-roller quenching and the containerless processing already. In this study, we prepared the glasses based on 2La2O3.9TiO2 system added with the third component of Al2O3,

Ga2O3, Y2O3, GeO2, ZrO2, HfO2, Nb2O5, Ta 2O5 and WO3. The glass transition temperature and the crystallization peak were determined by DTA. We tried to discuss the stabilization of 2La2O3.9TiO2 glass by the addition of the third component except the glass-forming oxide.

0421 | The investingation of antemelting on hydrated organic glass forming solutions Wanderson M. de Abreu1, Antonio V. Cardoso1*, Pia V. Orlien2, Mogens L. Andersen2, Leif H. Skibsted2 1REDEMAT/CETEC – Rede Temática em Engenharia de Materiais – Belo Horizonte – MG, e-mail: [email protected] 2Food Chemistry, Department of Food Science, Faculty of Life Sciences, Copenhagen University- Frederiksberg The formation of multiple thermal events in hydrated organic glass forming solutions was investigated focusing the occurrence of glass transition and related phenomena. The antemelting, a typical shape on DSC thermograms which precede the ice melting was observed on samples containing more than 40% water content. Thermogram analysis of samples within wide range of water content indicated that antemelting is preceded by the formation of a devitrification peak. When water content is increased this devitrification became too small to be clearly identified. Thermal treatment allowed nucleation and growth of crystals inside these samples, and produced thermograms with more than one glass transitions and lower devitrification peaks. Further thermal treatment produced thermograms displaying thermal event similar to antemelting. The extensive analysis on three different sugar related glass forming solutions – fructose, honey and caramel colorant hydrated solutions – indicated that antemelting is indeed a complex thermal phenomena which could be related to residual devitrification of low temperature glass associated or not to a remaining higher concentration glasses. Keywords: antemelting, glass transition, hydrated organic glass formers.

0485 | Alternative route to produce high alkali-phosphate glasses through nitridation Nerea Mascaraque, Alicia Durán, Francisco Muñoz* Instituto de Cerámica y Vidrio (CSIC), Kelsen 5, 28049, Madrid (Spain), e-mail: [email protected] Bulk oxynitride phosphate glasses are generally synthesized through the ammonolysis reaction of the melt under an anhydrous ammonia flow below 800ºC, where the nitrogen content depends on glass composition as well as the reaction conditions. Nitrogen substitution for oxygen is known to modify the properties of phosphate glasses. The glass transition temperature, density, elastic modulus, refractive index and electrical conductivity are increased with nitrogen content and, especially, the chemical resistance of the glasses is drastically improved. Another important feature is that nitridation decreases the tendency of the glass to crystallization. However, the use of some elements in the glass composition might reduce the possibilities of nitridation of phosphate glasses by the conventional ammonolysis route due to volatilization, phase separation, reduction reactions or devitrification phenomena. In this work, an alternative way to synthesize oxynitride phosphate glasses is explored using the effect of nitrogen on preventing spontaneous crystallization. In particular, lithium phosphate glasses have been prepared containing nitrogen and elements like fluorine, sulphur or boron, and

their glass forming ability has been studied. The results show that nitrogen allows the formulation of glasses with higher lithium contents respecting to non-nitrided glasses as well as prevents secondary reactions which otherwise reduce glass formability. Keywords: oxynitride glasses, nitridation, nitrogen, lithium phosphate glasses.

INVITED 0044 | New functionalities in glass via femtosecond SPEAKER laser writing of micro and nano structures Denise M. Krol Department of Applied Science, University of California, Davis, CA, e-mail: [email protected] Femtosecond laser processing of glass is becoming increasingly important as a method to modify the properties of glass with three-dimensional spatial selectivity. The fs-laser processing technique relies on the fact that focused fs laser pulses can give rise to very high intensities (1014 W/cm2), resulting in permanent modification of the material. By moving the sample relative to the laser focus it is possible to directly “write” micro- and nanostructures inside a glass. These structures can differ from the unmodified material in a wide variety of properties including refractive index, absorption coefficient, crystal structure, morphology etc. and they can be used to create waveguides, photonic crystals and other optical elements. The nature and magnitude of the fs-laser induced changes depend on the interplay between glass composition and laser processing parameters, such as pulse energy, repetition rate, and scan speed. Our studies, in which the fs laser writing set-up is integrated with confocal fluorescence and Raman microscopy, have shown that confocal spectroscopy is a key tool for understanding the structural changes associated with fs-laser writing in glass. In this talk I will discuss how this technique has been employed to investigate a wide variety of glass systems, including fused silica, phosphate glasses, rare-earth-doped glasses and glasses incorporating semiconductor quantum dots. Keywords: femtosecond laser processing, nonlinear optics, laser writing, fluorescence spectroscopy, raman spectroscopy, optical materials.

0365 | Femtosecond laser modification dynamics in fused silica Jonathan J. Witcher1*, Luke B. Fletcher1, Neil Troy1, Denise M. Krol1 1University of California, Davis, Department of Applied Science, One Shields Ave. Davis, CA 95616, e-mail: [email protected] Femtosecond (fs) laser pulses can be used to directly “write” photonic structures, such as waveguides, splitters, and Bragg gratings, inside a glass. This technique has great potential as a fabrication technique for three-dimensional integrated optical components with applications ranging from telecommunications to medical technology. Despite the advances in device design the mechanism responsible for the femtosecond laser modification of glass is not well understood. While the structural changes that result from modification have been characterized, little is known about the processes occurring between laser absorption and resulting modification. These processes are difficult to study because they occur in very small volumes and on time scales that range from femtoseconds to microseconds. In this study we have monitored the dynamics of fs-laser modification using a fs pump-probe setup. Fused silica was irradiated using an amplified Ti:sapphire fs-laser system as the pump. The transmission of a broadband probe was measured as a function of pump-probe delay. This transmission data was used to determine the electron density created by the absorption of the fs-laser pump pulse. Peak electron densities and plasma lifetimes were measured for various writing conditions. We will discuss the results in relation to the morphology and structural changes in the glass after fs-laser-induced modification. Keywords: femtosecond laser modification, optical components, pump-probe, plasma, dynamics, fused silica.

Ribeiro1, Younes Messaddeq1 1Laboratory Photonic Materials, Chemistry Institute-UNESP, Araraquara-SP, Brazil 2Universidade Federal de São Carlos – UFSCar, São Carlos-SP, Brazil, e-mail: [email protected] Silver-containing glasses have been prepared by different methodologies including ion-exchange and , while the silver nanoparticles embedded in such matrix has been obtained by controlled thermal annealing or laser irradiation. In the present work, the formation of Ag nanoparticles on tungsten based glass system, has been obtained from reduction of ionic Ag+ followed by nucleation and growth using controlled thermal annealing. Vitreous samples were prepared in the KPO3–WO3-AgCl system using conventional melting quenching method. Thermal and structural properties of glasses have been monitored as a function of WO3 content by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Raman and solid-state 31P MAS NMR spectroscopy. The formation of Ag-based nanoparticle after annealing has been investigated by UV-Vis spectroscopy and HRTEM.

The addition of WO3 to the KPO3 glass leads to a pronounced increase in the glass transition temperature suggesting significant increases in the network connectivity which is in agreement with structural data. Raman data suggests that glasses with low WO3 content present W-O- bonds while glasses containing more than

30% in mol of WO3 present W-O-W bonds. 31P MAS NMR data have shown a downshield around phosphate environment with increase WO3 content. UV-Vis spectroscopy measurement for the samples with different heat treatments shown absorption band centred at 530 nm. Keywords: nanoparticle, phosphate glasses, NMR, Ag.

These materials have indeed a built-in capability to repair the damages that may occur during use. When damage through thermal, mechanical, chemical or other origin is formed, the material has the ability to heal and restore itself to its original set of properties. Self-healing can be obtained in two ways: extrinsic or intrinsic. Intrinsic self-healing is fully autonomic but requires an external constraint such as temperature increase. On the other hand, extrinsic self-healing involves healing agents encapsulated in the material, and their reactivity is activated by a constraint (mechanical, chemical or thermal). Our self-healing concept is derived from that developed for polymeric materials. Healing particles are dispersed within the glass or glass-ceramic matrix. The choice of particles will be justified on the basis of their reactivity (monitored by NMR) and thermal characteristics of the matrix (measured with DTA-TG). Self-healing effect is demonstrated by in-situ experiment performed into an Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM). Keywords: glass/glass-ceramic, active particle, self-healing, extrinsic/intrinsic, in-situ experiment, environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM).

Over the past decade, different SOFC sealing concepts have been proposed. Among them rigid bonded sealing and compressive sealing have been extensively investigated. Glass and glass-ceramics are currently the developed solutions but they still require significant attention because their brittle nature can lead to fracture and loss of seal integrity and functionality. In this study, we propose a new concept of self- healing for glasses or glass-ceramics, which may increase significantly the life duration of SOFC stacks. The fully autonomic self-healing effect is demonstrated by an in-situ experiment performed into an Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM). The crack is simulated by Vickers indentation. SEM clearly shows

- 58 - Salvador, BA, Brazil – September 20-25, 2010 Invited and Oral Presentations

that the crack healing occurred within 30 min at 700 °C. Microprobe analysis indicates that the healing is produced by the in-situ formation of a new glassy phase. The performance of these self-healing seals under long-term exposure at high temperature, coupled with thermal cycles is characterized by leak tests. We also characterized the properties of the glass and healing agent composite (e.g. CTE, resistivity, density), to show that the initial properties of the glass are not significantly modified. We thus conclude that the self-healing process can be applied to any glass or glass-ceramic composition. Keywords: sealing-glass, solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), self-healing, in-situ experiment, environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM), leak test.

0085 | Glass-crystal transition in Ge-Sb-Te phase change materials under multiple thermal cycling and annealing Sergey Kozyukhin1,*, Alexey Sherchenkov2 1Kurnakov Institute of General and Inorganic Chemistry, RAS – Leninsky Pr., 31, Moscow, 119991 – Russia, e-mail: [email protected] 2Moscow Institute of Electronic Technology – Zelenograd, 124498 – Russia One of the attractive advantages of phase-change memory devices is considered to be increased cycling endurance. Recently we have shown that thermal cycling can lead to the phase separation in Ge2Sb2Te5 material. In this work we compared multiple thermal cycling of Ge2Sb2Te 5, GeSb2Te 4 and GeSb4Te 7, and investigated influence of additional annealing of synthesized materials on thermal stability by the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). For all as-deposited amorphous films exo peaks in the temperature ranges 125-190 °C and 200-230 °C were attributed to the transitions from amorphous to fcc structure, and from fcc to the stable hcp phase, respectively. Multiple DSC scanning lead to the appearance of the unknown endo peak in the temperature range 390-415 °C for all compounds. Increase of the number of DSC scanning is accompanied by the increase of the endo peak. XRD measurements revealed existence of at least two phases after multiple cycling. Additional annealing of synthesized materials was carried out at 775 K in Ar atmosphere. It was found that after the annealing kinetics of the endo peak increase is much slower, which can be attributed to the slowed diffusion processes. So, additional annealing of synthesized powders leads to the sufficient increase of the thermal stability of Ge-Sb-Te materials, which is important for the increased cycling endurance of recording devices. This work was supported by a grant 08-03-00651 from RFBR. Keywords: phase-change memory, multiple thermal cycling.

Presence of quantum dots in cores was confirmed by using the visible absorption spectroscopy and the TEM measurement. Effect of concentration of CdSe QDs from 0 to 2 × 1025 dots/m3 in the core of the germano-silica glass fiber on optical absorption and magneto- optic properties was investigated. Glass fibers were single mode in the measurement range of 633 nm. Magneto-optic sensitivity of CdSe QDs-doped glass fibers was determined at 633 nm by measuring the Faraday rotation angle upon the influence of magnetic field. The mean Faraday rotation angle of the glass fiber with low concentration (2.2 × 1024 dots/m3) of CdSe QDs was measured to be about 27°, while that of the fiber with high concentration 2 × 1025 dots/m3 was about 39° at 0.142 T of magnetic field. On the other hand, the fiber without CdSe QDs showed the Faraday rotation of -15°. Magnetic sensitivity increased from

This enhanced magnetic sensitivity of CdSe QDs-doped glass fibers was attributed to the high concentration of CdSe QDs.

Campus de In many cases, the surface crystallization of glass results in the formation of oriented structures. The crystallization mechanism which leads to the orientation is often denoted as crystal selection. Here, randomly oriented crystals are formed by surface nucleation. Then they grow and in some distance from the surface, only those crystals will occur which are oriented with their fastest growing axis perpendicular to the surface. All other crystals will hinder each other during crystal growth. In the present study, the systems fresnoite (Ba2TiSi2O8), bariumaluminum borate and cordierite are studied using x-ray diffraction and EBSD. It is shown that in the fresnoite and the bariumaluminum system, the crystals formed immediately at the surface are already oriented, however, the orientation is just another one than in some distance from the surface. We conclude that immediately after the nucleation, i. e. in a distance of some nm from the surface, the thermodynamics of the nucleation process, i. e. the surface energies play a decisive role. Subsequently, the orientation changes and in some distance from the surface only crystals oriented with their fastest growing axis perpendicular to the surface will occur. During this step, the crystallization kinetics is decisive. Keywords: surface crystallization, oriented crystallization, electron backscatter diffraction.

0375 | The mechanism of nanocrystallization in earth alkaline fluoride systems Christian Bocker*, Christian Rüssel Otto-Schott-Instiut, University Jena, Fraunhoferstrasse 6, 07743 Jena, Germany

Thermal annealing of oxyfluoride glasses led to the precipitation of nano crystalline BaF2 or CaF2. A narrow crystallite size distribution and a homogenous dispersion of BaF2 crystallites in the glassy matrix were observed by electron microscopy. The crystallite size distributions were even narrower than predicted by LSW- or B&W growth theory. This led to a good optical transparency of the glass-ceramics. The formation of a highly viscous layer around the crystals which acts as diffusion barrier was proposed and proved by advanced EELS techniques. Diffusion profiles of barium and fluoride at different temperatures were obtained. It turned out that the diffusion of barium controls the crystal growth rate. Using experimental data of viscosity as a function of temperature, the change of the viscosity of the residual glassy phase during crystallization of BaF2 can be described. Structural investigations of glasses and glass-ceramics were performed in cooperation with the CSIC, Madrid, using MAS-NMR. Various samples were analyzed and the role of fluoride during crystallization was clarified. Thermal annealing of some samples led to the crystallization of an orthorhombic modification of BaF2 which is only thermodynamically stable at high pressures. The formation of the orthorhombic phase is due to compressive stresses during crystallization. This is the first experimental evidence of the formation of high pressure during crystallization of glass. Keywords: oxyfluoride glasses, glass-ceramics, crystal growth, nanocrystallization.

Rare-earth (RE) molybdate glasses such as RE2O3-MoO3-B2O3 show the crystallization of ferroelectric- ferroelastic b’-RE2(MoO4)3 in usual heat treatments and laser induced crystallization. Furthermore, crystal lines show self-organized periodic domain structures with periodic refractive index changes. Second Harmonics Generation (SHG) changes periodically depending on self-organized periodic domain structure. To clarify 3+ the peculiar crystal growth and morphology of this crystal line, Er -doped b’-(Sm,Gd)2(MoO4)3 crystal lines are patterned on the surface of Er2O3-Gd2O3-Sm2O3-MoO3-B2O3 glasses by continuous-wave Yb:YVO4 laser irradiations (wavelength: 1080 nm), and the origin of the periodicity of self-organized domain structures with the refractive index regions in the crystal lines is examined from polarized optical microscope, micro-Raman scattering spectrum. It is found that the periodicity of domain structures changes largely depending on Er2O3 content, i.e., the length of each periodic domain regions increases with increasing Er2O3 content. Considering that the degree of ferroelasticities in b’-(Sm,Gd)2(MoO4)3 crystals decreases due to the incorporation of Er3+ ions, it is concluded that the origin of periodic domain structures in laser-patterned lines is due to spontaneous strains in ferroelastic b’-(Sm,Gd)2(MoO4)3 crystals. On the other hand, laser induced crystallization method was applied to pattern two-dimensional planar crystals consisting of b’-(Sm,Gd)2(MoO4)3 crystal. Keywords: rare earth molybdate, laser induced crystallization, ferroelectric-ferroelastic.

While these phenomena are recognized to be useful for fabrication of optical device component, the transition state from glass/supercooled liquid (SCL) phase to crystal phase has not been fully understood yet. Inelastic light scattering measurement is one of the powerful techniques to examine chemical bonding and coordination states. We recently verified that in-situ Boson measurement is able to sensitively observe the relaxation and rearrangement of the SCL state. [1-3] In this study, we investigate the nucleation and crystal-growth processes of oxide glasses (mainly silicate) by means of in-situ observation of inelastic light scattering (Boson and Raman region) during heating/ crystallization in order to elucidate their crystallization dynamics. Main topics we will deal with are i) structural relaxation below Tg and nanometric heterogeneity, and ii) precursive stage of crystallization. 1. Y. Takahashi, M. Osada, H. Masai, T. Fujiwara, Phys.

[5]Al (Guignard et al., 2009). Simultaneously to the structural changes around Ti, we have also evidenced strong modifications in the remaining glass network, which imply an increasing order in the glass structure early in the nucleation process. This reflects the atomic rearrangements in the glassy part resulting from the diffusion of the chemical species towards the glass/crystal interface. One of these rearrangements is the modification of the Al coordination that varies from tetrahedral to octahedral as the nucleation proceeds (Guignard et al., accepted). The resulting [6]Al can then form new sites favoring the formation or growth of MAT nuclei. Our study emphasizes that the development of structural investigations can give new information at the atomic scale that are essential to improve the picture of nucleation processes in amorphous materials.

0310 | Dendritic crystallization in lead oxifluoroborate glasses bellow the glass transition temperature José E. De Souza1*, Seila R. de Souza1, Jean-Claude M’Peko1, Antonio C Hernandes1 1*Instituto de Física de São Carlos – IFSC/USP, São Carlos-SP, e-mail: [email protected] Branched fractal crystallization of β-PbF2 was observed after the appliance of a DC field of ~ 3.7V/mm on a B2O3-PbO-PbF2 glass. Although the electrochemical deposition of coatings through liquid electrolytes baths has been discussed elsewhere, the occurrence of this effect in a solid electrolyte is less common. Here, the crystal formation happens well below the glass transition interval, being an electrochemical process in essence. Then, at least in a first approximation, the process can be described in a similar way to that of a liquid system, including an oscillatory character in the nucleation kinetics. The nucleation and growth is clearly biased towards the electric fields and this aspect gives an interesting way of producing glass ceramics, where spatial position and homogeneity of crystals in the surface, as well as the size distribution of them can be controlled. The following parameters were analyzed: the process temperature, the time of DC application and the metal species used as electrode (sputtered gold, painted silver, or a platinum flat plate just with a mechanical contact). Keywords: lead oxifluoroborate, sub-sub Tg crystallization, dendritic crystallization, electrochemical deposition.

Bulk glass of molar composition 0.45SiO2–0.45MgO–0.1(3CaO.P2O5) presents phase separation comprising aggregated globular structures, patterned at the micrometric scale, shown to correspond to amorphous SiO2 by TEM-EDS. Polished bulk samples examined by SEM after HNO3 etching, which tends to lixiviate preferentially phosphate rich regions, shown that the area surrounding globular aggregates is phosphate-enriched, thus suggesting diffusion governed growth. A concentration profile between nearby globular clusters was obtained by TEM-EDS. The globular aggregates are noticeably harder than the glass matrix, what permitted to reveal their 3-dimensional morphology by AFM examination, being the sample polished so that the harder phase morphology remained fairly preserved, while the glass matrix appears recessed. HF and HNO3 etched samples were also examined by AFM, providing further evidence for the matrix concentration profile, since HF tends to lixiviate preferentially the silicate-enriched regions, while revealing silicate-rich undelimited regions located between nearby clusters. Such regions are seemingly associated with the nucleation of SiO2 amorphous globules, which, hereafter, tend to evolve toward globular clusters. Glass frit grains present heterogeneous poorly defined domains, depicting a fractal kind of morphology, cauliflower-like, mostly patterned at the nanometric scale. The phase separation regimen seemingly evolves from spinodal (frit), towards binodal (bulk glass). Keywords: TEM, SEM, AFM, phase separation, nanostructures, nucleation, spinodal decomposition.

0324 | Crystallization of GeAsTe bulk glass and thin films Bruce G. Aitken*, Stephen C Currie and Charlene M. Smith Corning Incorporated, Corning, NY 14831, USA, e-mail: [email protected] Certain telluride materials are characterized by unusually high contrast in optical and/or electrical properties between the glassy/amorphous and crystallized state. In particular, compositions on the Sb2Te 3-GeTe join, including the so-called “phase change” alloys Ge2Sb2Te 5 and GeSb2Te 4, have found application in optical and electronic memory. In this study, we report on the physical properties and structure, as studied by calorimetry, reflectance spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction, of analogous materials in which Sb has been replaced by As. 3+ Despite the strong tendency to crystallize one of the GexAs2Te x phases, bulk glasses have been made on 3- the As2Te GeTe join with Ge content ranging from 0 to 18%, including glassy GeAs2Te 4. Amorphous GeAsTe, GeSbTe and quaternary thin films have been made by pulsed laser deposition. Heat treatment of GeAsTe and quaternary films results in an increase in reflectance from ~40 to ~60% due to crystallization of hexagonal 3+ Gex(As,Sb)2Te x phases, similar to the behavior of amorphous GeSb2Te 4 films. Although the GeAsTe films are characterized by greater reflectance contrast than their GeSbTe analogs, crystallization kinetics are slower, perhaps due to a greater change in short range order between glass and corresponding crystal. Keywords: nonoxide glass, telluride, thin films.

0009 | Adiabatic nucleation in devitrifying “fragile” oxide glasses Erich Meyer1*, Vitorvani Soares1 1Instituto de Física, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, C.T. – Bloco A, Cidade Universitária, 21945-970 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, e-mail: [email protected] A quantitative Adiabatic Nucleation Theory (ANT) is proposed for devitrifying oxide glasses. In contrast to the Classical Nucleation Theory (CNT), the former theory does not consider isothermal heterophase fluctuations which grow, in the supersaturated state, with a certain probability, above a maximum of Gibbs’ potential which is due to the existence of a surface tension. Common fluctuations of the thermodynamic variables (homophase fluctuations) are considered. A few of them go beyond the adiabatic liquid-solid stability limit, become unstable and result adiabatically, if large enough, in a crystalline nucleus of higher entropy. At the first moment, the new nucleus has a different temperature. Additionally, immediately afterwards, in a second step, temperature equalization occurs, followed by a further increase of the total entropy. The present model shows realistic results for “fragile” glasses (following Angel’s classification), T00/Tg > 0.6 where T00 is the Fulcher temperature and Tg is the glass transition temperature, but may fail, when applied to “strong” glasses, T00/Tg < 0.6. This is because the low Fulcher temperature of “strong” glasses invalidates simplifying approximations of the model, as, for example, the extrapolation of the viscosity function (far below Tg) and the approximate validity of the Stokes-Einstein relation. Keywords: nucleation, glasses, amorphous solids, thermodynamic stability.

Smith Department of Physics, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK CV4 7AL, e-mail: [email protected] NMR is an increasingly important and informative probe of glasses whose capability still continues to advance very rapidly with increasing multinuclear capability and more sophisticated experiments that enhance the information about intermediate-range order. Some recent technique developments that are especially important for glasses (e.g. two-dimensional correlation techniques), more challenging nuclei (e.g. 17O, 43Ca), as well as some more speculative, but really exciting new techniques in the early stages of development that are just being developed (double angle rotation (DOR), dynamic nuclear polarisation (DNP)) are presented.

0092 | Mechanisms of apatite crystallization in dental glass-ceramics W. Höland*, V.M. Rheinberger, C. Ritzberger, E. Apel Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Research and Development, Bendererstr. 2 Li-9494 Schaan, Principality of Liechtenstein

Fluoroapatite (Ca5(PO4)3F) was precipitated in glass-ceramics via internal crystallization of base glasses. The crystals grew in needlelike morphology in the direction of the crystallographic c-axis. HR-TEM, SEM, XRD, and solid state NMR investigations were used to indentify two different reaction mechanisms: precipitation via a disordered primary apatite crystal and a second mechanism in the form of a solid state parallel reaction to rhenanite (NaCa(PO4)3) precipitation. In contrast to the internal nucleation used in the formation of fluoroapatite, surface crystallization was induced to precipitate a phosphate-free oxyapatite of the NaY9(SiO4)6O2-type. Keywords: biomaterials, dental, fluoroapatite, restoration.

0248 | Surface modification of ferrimagnetic glass-ceramic particles for magnetic drug targeting Oana Bretcanu*, Sara Ferraris, Marta Miola, Enrica Vernè Material Science and Chemical Engineering Departement, Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy SP, e-mail: [email protected] The aim of this work is the surface activation of ferrimagnetic glass-ceramic powders for the treatment of tumours. These powders contain magnetic crystals embedded in a bioactive amorphous phase. Due to their magnetic properties, they can be heated by alternating magnetic fields. Therefore, when implanted into a tumour, these materials can generate the tissue heating under variable magnetic fields. The heating temperature depends on the materials properties, magnetic field parameters (intensity, frequency, position), exposure time and tissue characteristics (cells type, blood flow, tissue density, thermal conductivity, electrical permittivity). The bioactive amorphous phase can be easily functionalised in order to bind specific biomolecules or drugs, joining the heating properties with a more efficient chemotherapy. By suitable functionalisation processes, these materials can have good potentiality for magnetic drug targeting therapy. The materials microstructure was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The morphology of the magnetic crystals was analysed by scanning electron microscopy. The specific power loss was studied by calorimetric measurements, using a magnetic field generator with frequencies up to 200kHz. Surface modification was observed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, atomic absorption spectroscopy and contact angle measurements. Cytotoxicity studies were performed by using human osteosarcoma cells. Keywords: functionalisation ferrimagnetic, glass-ceramics, hyperthermia, drug targeting, cancer treatment.

This research work consider the opportunity to conjugate inorganic bioactivity, peculiar of bioactive glasses, and biological bioactivity (of biomolecules) by means of the grafting of an enzyme (alkaline phosphatase – ALP) on bioactive glasses surface. Glasses with different degree of bioactivity have been considered. Grafting efficacy, bonding stability, enzymatic activity and bioactivity have been evaluated. It has been demonstrated that it is possible to successfully graft ALP to surface of reactive glasses maintaining its activity. A synergistic effect between biological functionalization and apatite forming ability has been observed. Cellular stimulating behavior has been verified in vitro on human osteoblast like cells (MG-63). The effect of different sterilization techniques on functionalized surfaces has been evaluated. Both sterility and enzymatic activity have been tested before and after sterilization. Finally the effect of packaging and storage conditions has been considered. Keywords: bioactivity, biological functionalization, tissue-implant interaction, bioactive glasses, sterilization.

PGs fibres can be an interesting option for the synthesis of tissue engineering constructs, alone or in composite materials with a polymeric matrix.

Three TiO2-containing PGs with different solubility have been developed and completely characterized and then processed in order to obtain fibres. The results showed that, with small variations in the glass composition, it was possible to obtain PGs with a wide range of dissolution rate and that all glasses were biocompatible. The influence of pH, medium and dissolution products on the resorption process have been investigated. Furthermore, several tens of meters of glass fibres with diameters ranging from17 ± 1 µm and 79 ± 2 µm were obtained using a preform drawing approach, demonstrating the control and versatility of the process. The fibers resorption in distilled water was investigated before and after an annealing treatment as well as their mechanical properties. Biological tests on fibers using neural cells are in progress. Keywords: phosphate glasses, solubility, glass fibres.

0284 | Chemical factors behind bioactivity of glasses Leena Hupa*, Kaj H. Karlsson, Mikko Hupa Åbo Akademi University, Process Chemistry Centre, FI-20500 Turku, Finland, e-mail: [email protected] Glasses forming on their surface a dual layer of silica and hydroxyapatite crystals (HAP) in vitro are thought to be bioactive. In vivo the glasses are bonded chemically to bone via the HAP layer. In this presentation we discuss the chemical mechanism of bioactivity of glasses based on recent and previous research work in our research group at Åbo Akademi University. The models for layer formation in vitro as functions of glass composition were used to predict the ability of the glasses to bond to bone. Bone bonding in vivo was interpreted from the layer thicknesses and structures as suggested by the cross-sectional SEM-EDX analyses of the interface between glass and bone. Push-out forces of the implants of different compositions were used to classify the glasses into different reactivities. The comparison of the in vitro and in vivo results indicated that dual layer formation in vitro cannot be used as the only criterion for bioactivity of glasses. In the presentation the role of the detailed site of HAP precipitation will be discussed. It appears as the most bioactive glasses have the tendency to form the HAP precipitate inside the silica layer. Keywords: bioactive glass, in vitro, in vivo, hydroxyapatite.

INVITED 0400 | Bioactive glass and hybrid scaffolds SPEAKER for bone regeneration Julian R Jones Department of Materials, Imperial College London, London, SW7 2AZ For bone regeneration, a scaffold must stimulate bone growth, dissolving as the bone regenerates. The scaffold must have an interconnected pore network. For new bone to survive, blood vessels must penetrate. Bioactive glasses are ideal candidates but commercially they are only available in a granular form. It is difficult to make porous melt-derived bioactive glasses because they crystallise during sintering. Scaffolds have been developed through the sol-gel glass foaming process. They stimulate new bone growth and fulfil all the criteria for an ideal scaffold except that they are brittle. In vitro tests show the scaffolds can be pre-vascularised prior to implantation by culturing a specific mix of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and human endothelial cells. Sub-micron particles have also been synthesised and MSC response investigated. Particles <250nm diameter are up taken but were not toxic. New compositions of melt-derived glasses have been developed that can be sintered. The gel-cast foaming process has been adapted to produce porous scaffolds. To provide toughness, inorganic/organic hybrid scaffolds, where the inorganic and organic components interact at the nanoscale and are covalently linked, have been developed that can provide control of degradation rates and mechanical properties, e.g. sol-gel silica and enzyme degradable polypeptides. We have developed image analysis techniques for quantifying open pore networks in 3D from X-ray microtomography images. Keywords: bioative glass, scaffold, porous, sol-gel, hybrid, cell response, nanostrucuture.

0291 | Dissolution kinetics of bioactive glasses by continuos measurement Susanne Fagerlund*, Paul Ek, Leena Hupa, Mikko Hupa Process Chemistry Centre, Åbo Akademi University, Piispankatu 8, FI-20500 Turku, Finland, e-mail: [email protected] In this presentation we report ion dissolution from bioactive glasses in aqueous solutions. Understanding the detailed dissolution mechanism is of importance when glasses are developed to different applications. Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP‑OES) was utilized to continuously measure the concentration profile of the ions dissolved from glass particles in a flow-through reactor. This technique was sensitive enough to continuously monitor the low concentrations of the dissolved ions. Different flow rates (0.08‑0.8 ml/min) and temperatures (40‑80°C) were used in tests with distilled water. The ion release was studied also in Tris-buffered solution (37°C). In both solutions the ion concentration increased rapidly within the first minutes. At longer flow-through times a more linear dissolution profile was obtained. The results showed a rapid dissolution of alkalis within the first minutes of glass to solution contact. The silica dissolution started to dominate after this stage. The connection of the dissolution behavior with the bioactivity will be discussed. Keywords: bioactive glass, ion release in vitro, on-line measurement, ICP-OES.

0122 | Processing of bone tissue engineering glass-ceramic scaffolds with adjustable strength and bioactive properties Chiara Vitale-Brovarone1*, Enrica Verné1, Francesco Baino1 1*Materials Science and Chemical Engineering Department, Politecnico di Torino – Corso Duca degli Abruzzi 24, 10129 Torino, Italy, e-mail: [email protected] 3-D foam-like glass-ceramic scaffolds were fabricated via sponge replication using silicate glass powders of complex composition. By modifying the process parameters for scaffolding (e.g. cycles of sponge impregnation, sintering temperature), it was possible to obtain scaffolds with different structural features and, therefore tuneable mechanical strength. In addition, as the chemical and crystallographic characteristics of the glass- ceramic material influence the scaffold strength and its bioactivity, such properties were also designed by modifying the composition of the starting glass. All the prepared scaffolds exhibited a highly interconnected network of open macropores (100-500 μm) able to effectively mimic the trabecular architecture of natural cancellous bone. The total pores content ranged within 50-70% vol. and the compressive strength varied from 5 to 15 MPa. The in vitro bioactivity was assessed by soaking the samples in SBF for different time frames and

- 66 - Salvador, BA, Brazil – September 20-25, 2010 Invited and Oral Presentations

by evaluating the kinetics of hydroxylapatite formation on the scaffold trabeculae. A high biocompatibility was found in vitro using osteoblast-like cells (MG-63). The prepared scaffolds can be suggested as versatile grafts in bone reconstructive surgery, also for load-bearing applications, thanks to their ease of tailoring, bioactive properties and high mechanical strength. Keywords: silicate glasses, glass-ceramics, scaffold, sponge replication, scaffold strength, bioactivity, bone grafting.

0414 | The interaction of densification and crystallisation of 45S5 Bioglass® powder for fabrication of tissue scaffolds Aldo R. Boccaccini1,2 *, Xanthippi Chatzistavrou1 Oana Bretcanu3 1Department of Materials, Imperial College London, London SW7 2BP, UK 2Institute of Biomaterials, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] 3Department of Materials Science and Chemical Engineering, Politecnico di Torino, Italy There is increasing interest in using partially crystallised Bioglass® scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. These porous structures are fabricated by the foam replica technique from Bioglass® powder. In this study, sintering and crystallisation of 45S5 Bioglass® powder were investigated. Hot stage microscopy and dilatometry showed that the bioactive glass powder sinters in two major steps: a short stage between 500 and 600 °C and a longer stage in the range 850-1100 °C. In relation to the fabrication of porous scaffolds, the optimal sintering conditions were determined to be 1050 °C and 140 minutes for temperature and sintering time, respectively. At these conditions high densification of the foam struts by viscous flow occurs. Differential thermal analysis showed that Bioglass® crystallises at temperatures between 600 and 750 °C, indicating that the material is highly crystallised prior to undergoing significant densification (above 850 °C). The characteristic crystalline phases were identified by Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The crystallisation kinetics was studied by DTA, using a non-isothermal method. For Bioglass® powder heated at different heating rates (5-30 °C/min) the activation energy was determined. Surface crystallization was identified as the crystallisation mechanism. After sintering at 1050 °C for 140 min, the main crystalline phase detected was Na2Ca2Si3O9. TEM however confirmed the presence of small amount of other silicate phases. The results of this work are useful for the design of the sintering/crystallization heat treatment for fabricating bone tissue scaffolds with varying degree of bioactivity and improved mechanical properties. Keywords: bioactive glass, sintering, crystallization, porous materials, glass-ceramics, tissue engineering, scaffolds.

Sol-gel derived SiO2 – CaO – P2O5 monoliths with a dual pore structure including nanopores ~ 5–20 nm and macropores ~ 20–200 microns in size have been prepared in the presence of the drying control additive formamide, for possible application as scaffolds in bone tissue regeneration [1-2]. Nanopores are intrinsic to sol-gel processing; the interconnected macropores have been achieved through polymer-induced phase separation together with the sol-gel transition, by adding a water soluble polymer, poly(ethylene oxide), to the precursor sol. The nanopore structure was controlled through the addition of urea. The overall pore size distribution was obtained by mercury intrusion porosimetry. The morphology of the scaffold materials and their pore structure have been studied by scanning electron microscopy. In-vitro tests were used to evaluate bioactivity, confirmed by FTIR and XRD measurements . In-vivo experiments have also been conducted on New Zealand rabbits, showing significant osteoconductivity and bone regeneration. 1. Ana C. Marques, Himanshu Jain, Carol Kiely and Rui M. Almeida, J.

Allen5, G Blunn5, A Goodship5, MM Stevens2,3 1RepRegen Ltd, London, UK 2Department of Materials, Imperial College London, UK 3Institute of Biomedical Engineering, Imperial College London, UK 4School of Clinical Dentistry, University of Sheffield, UK 5Institute of Orthopaedics & Musculoskeletal Science, UCL, UK Here we report on the structure, physical properties, in vitro and in vivo performance of a series of bioactive glasses SiO2-Na2O-CaO-SrO-P2O5 where 0-100% of the Ca was substituted with Sr. Characteristic temperatures were obtained using DTA. All temperatures except crystallisation onset (Tx) decreased with Sr addition to a minimum at 50% Sr then increased with higher Sr. Raman spectra showed the glass structure was predominantly composed of linear silicate chains (Q2) and isolated orthophosphate units (Q0). Cell metabolic activity (MTT assay) increased with Sr until cell confluence (14 days). ALP assay showed increased mineralisation with Sr content. LDH assay, LIVE/DEAD and actin-vinculin staining showed all glasses were non-toxic. 10% Sr glass exhibited the highest LDH activity. Sr glasses led to higher cell viability compared to the Sr free glass. 10% Sr glass was implanted in ovine femora. At 90 days defects (1580 N.mm–1) and surrounding bone (1603 N.mm–1) with Sr glass were stiffer compared to the control (942 and 1161 N.mm–1). Defect density was higher with 10% Sr glass (925 mg.cm–3) compared to the control (656 mg.cm–3) and the surrounding bone was similar in density (574 and 554 mg.cm–3). Sr serum levels were close to baseline at all time points. This indicates that implantation of a Sr bioactive glass results in rapid formation of bone with higher material properties in and around the defect in the short-term compared to a conventional bioceramic bone graft. Keywords: bioactive, bioglass, DTA, raman, structure, in vitro, in vivo.

0292 | 3D fabrication of bioactive glass implants Robert Meszaros*, Andrea Vander, Lothar Wondraczek Department of Material Science and Engineering – University of Erlangen-Nuremberg – Germany, e-mail: [email protected] Bioactive glasses exhibit high surface reactivity as well as resorbtion and osteoconductive properties. They can be used for bone repair, e.g. as bone filler. In some cases, they may also support cell growth. While, in terms of viscosity behavior, a wide working range makes them suitable for sintering by viscous flow, also crystallization may be induced during sintering. In this study we focus on using 3D-printing techniques and subsequent sintering to generate complex, patient-specific inlays and substitutes for unloaded implants. We discuss 3D printing, sintering and subsequent crystallization of 13-93 bioactive glass powder (composition:

53 wt % SiO2, 6 wt % Na2O, 12 wt % K2O; 5 wt % MgO, 20 wt % CaO, and 4 wt % P2O5) depending on powder preparation, sinter additives, green sample preparation, particle size and heating rate. Shrinkage was studied using optical dilatometry, crystallization kinetics by DSC and XRD and the microstructure was analyzed by SEM and micro CT. Feasibility in fabrication of 3D-printed bioactive glass implants is discussed. Keywords: 3D printing, bioactive glass, glass sintering, shrinkage, bone repair.

INVITED 0221 | Glasses at ultra-low temperatures: interplay of SPEAKER atomic tunneling systems and nuclear magnetic moments Christian Enss Kirchhoff-Institut für Physik, Universität Heidelberg, Im Neuenheimer Feld 227, D-69120 Heidelberg, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] The low-temperature properties of disordered solids, like glasses or crystals with certain substitutional defects are governed by atomic tunneling systems. Until recently it was believed that the dielectric properties of insulating materials devoid of magnetic impurities should not –or only very weakly– depend on external magnetic fields. New experiments on glasses und crystalline defect systems show in contrast to that a strong magnetic field dependence of the dielectric susceptibility of such materials at ultra-low temperatures. We will discuss polarization echo experiments that show that these effects are caused by tunneling particles with nuclear magnetic moments. Using isotope substitution we demonstrate the role of nuclear quadrupol and nuclear magnetic dipole moments regarding the magnetic field dependence. We also show that tunneling particles with nuclear moments can be used as local probes to investigate the microscopic nature of tunneling systems. Keywords: insulating glasses, magnetic fields, ultralow temperatures.

0068 | Gas permeation through Al2O3-SiO2 glasses containing metal ions Masayuki Nogami*, Hiromasa Shiiba, Guihlherme A. Kleine, Tomokatsu Hayakawa Nagoya Institute of Technology, Showa, Nagoya, 466-8555 Japan, e-mail: [email protected]

3+ 3+ 2+ Hydrogen gas permeation properties in Al2O3-SiO2 glass doped with Eu , Nd and Cu ions were studied by monitoring the gas flowing rate and the hydroxyl formation. The family of Al2O3-SiO2 glasses exhibit the hydrogen gas permeability of 10-13 ~ 10-12 mol/sec/m/Pa at 500 °C, which was higher than 103 times of that in SiO2 glass which is known to have highest permeability in the glasses. This high H2 gas permeability was related with the formation of hydroxyl bonds acting as easy pass way for hydrogen molecules. In the Cu2+- 2+ doped Al2O3-SiO2 glass, the Cu ions were reduced into Cu metal particles to diffuse to the surface, followed by vaporization, which enhanced the permeation rate of hydrogen gas. On the other hand, the formation of Eu2+ ions resulted into the decreased permeability.

Keywords: gas, permeation, Al2O3-SiO2 glass, hydroxyl.

0239 | Comparison of residual stress around Vickers indentation in various glass compositions by using birefringence imaging technique Yoshinari Kato1*,2, Hiroki Yamazaki1, Satoshi Yoshida2, Jun Matsuoka2, Charles R. Kurkjian3 1*Technical Division, Nippon Electric Glass Co.,Ltd., Otsu, Japan, e-mail: [email protected] 2School of Engineering, The University of Shiga Prefecture, Hikone, Japan 3University of Southern Maine, ME, USA Residual stresses around Vickers indentation in various commercial glass compositions were investigated with a birefringence imaging system, and a relationship between residual stress distribution and crack initiation load is discussed. Crack resistance, which corresponds to crack initiation load in a Vickers indentation test, depends strongly on glass composition. It is known that indentation of glass causes both plastic deformation and irreversible densification, and the former will be the origin of residual stress. In our previous study, glasses showing easier densification by the indentation test result in higher crack resistance. In the present study, birefringence distributions due to the residual stress in various glass compositions were measured, not only in the direction parallel to the load ( "top view"), but also in the direction perpendicular to the load ("side view"). Flat fibers with rectangular cross-section were prepared for the birefringence imaging from the both directions. Circular regions with birefringence were found around the indentation in the top view, and semi- circular ones in the side view image were found. It is clarified that the birefringence distributions, especially in

Salvador, BA, Brazil – September 20-25, 2010 - 69 - Invited and Oral Presentations

the side view image, depend on glass composition. In glasses showing easier densification, a smaller region with birefringence appears. It is expected that the compositional dependence of the birefringence distribution is related to a wide variety of crack resistance with glass. Keywords: birefringence, crack initiation, residual stress, Vickers indentation.

0261 | Sheet glass strength levels, thermochemically treated with difluorodichloromethane Vasilii Sharagov1*, Gheorghe Duca2 1*Balti State University “A.

Experiments were held in laboratory and industrial conditions. Regimes of the thermochemical treatment of glass with difluorodichloromethane are the following: temperature – between 300 and 900 °C, duration – between 5 min and 2 h, quantity of gas reagent introduced into the reacting vessel – between 0.1 and 1.0 mol. The mechanical properties of sheet glass were characterized by central symmetrical flexural strength, impact strength and microhardness. The results were subjected to statistical analysis. Differential and integral curves of strength distribution of sheet glass for various regimes of thermochemical treatment were made. A disparity in the strength levels of glass without treatment and of the samples after thermochemical treatment was revealed. The mechanism of strengthening of sheet glass, thermochemically treated with difluorodichloromethane is discussed. Keywords: sheet glass, thermochemical treatment, difluorodichloromethane, strength levels, statistical analysis, differential and integral curves, mechanism.

Paris 6/PRES, UniverSud, CNRS, Paris, France, e-mail: matteo.ciccotti@ univ-montp2.fr Recent atomic force microscopy (AFM) experiments on the fracture of glass in the stress-corrosion regime reported the presence of a nanometric process zone near the crack tip which is still a matter of debate. In this work, we investigate by AFM the limit of elasticity in silica glass in double cleavage drilled compression (DCDC) specimens. First, a novel Integrated Digital Image Correlation technique is used on consecutive in-situ AFM images of a crack in slow propagation to show that the elastic solution for the surface displacement field is valid down to a distance of 10 nm from the crack tip. The local measurement of the stress intensity factor is also proved on images of 200 nm size. Secondly, we investigated the roughness properties of fracture surfaces. The height-height correlation functions along 1D sections of the AFM images are known to present two scaling regimes, separated by a cutoff length of the order of few tens of nm. Although this length scale was previously interpreted as a process zone size, we show here that this length could arise from the finite size of the AFM scanning probe. These results call for prudence regarding previous claims of nanoductile mechanical behaviour of glass. Keywords: silica glass, elasticity properties, atomic force microscopy, digital image correlation, roughness properties.

Kastler, 10 rue Ampère, Villeurbanne, F-69622, France, e-mail: [email protected] Silica anomaly is defined as a minimum of elastic constants when the pressure increases in the elastic domain. High pressure experiments in this domain demonstrate that a correlation can be established between this anomaly and structural observations deduced from Raman scattering experiments1. The low frequency Raman scattering decrease of the intensity, corresponding to the Boson peak, is interpreted as a decrease of the intrinsic inhomogeneity of the glass when a hydrostatic pressure is applied in the elastic domain2. This is correlated with a decrease of the value of the inter-tetraedral angle distribution as deduced from the width of the main Raman band. Furthermore when the hydrostatic pressure reaches a value higher than 9GPa silica is plastically compressed. In the permanently densified silica elaborated in a such way, the Raman experiments demonstrate that this anomaly does not exist anymore. These results will be compared with Molecular Dynamic Simulations and discussed in the case of the iso-structural GeO2 glass. 1. T.

0056 | Fabrication of amorphous arsenic-sulphide alloys by on-axis continuous-wave laser deposition J.M. González-Leal1*, J.A. Angel1, L. Rubio-Peña2, J. Valverde1 1*Department of Condensed Matter Physics, Faculty of Sciences, University of Cadiz, 11510 – Puerto Real (Spain), e-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Systems Engineering and Automatics, Electronic Technology and Electronics, School of Engineering. University of Cadiz, 11002 – Cadiz (Spain) A number of both physical and chemical methods are known to produce amorphous materials ¾ all of them sharing structural processes occurring at large cooling rates ¾ and evidences of the strong influence of the fabrication technique in the properties of amorphous alloys have been extensively reported in the literature. Recently, after the invention of laser generators, and as the light power was increasing, laser deposition techniques were shown to be suitable for growing a number of amorphous materials, mainly for planar technologies. Thus, pulsed laser deposition of superconductor and semiconductor materials have been largely shown in the past decade, and the interest in the properties of growth materials is motivating intensive research activities to understand the mechanisms underlying this light-assisted deposition technique. It is worth mentioning that the deposition of amorphous alloys by means of continuous-wave laser sources has also been shown, although interestingly their use nowadays seems quite scarce. We introduce here an original laser-based approach for the deposition of semiconductor materials which, differently to the pulsed-laser deposition uses a continuous-wave laser source, and on-axis geometry with target and substrate facing parallel each other. Its most remarkable characteristic is the concurrent actuation of light during the conformation of the material that is being deposited onto a transparent substrate, as illustrated in Fig. 1. The deposition of amorphous arsenic-sulphide alloys has been successfully shown when using a cw laser source at 532 nm and intensities of the order of 102 Wcm-2, and some properties of the materials deposited lift when compared with the ones observed in the same alloys, but prepared by other fabrication techniques, as melt-quenching, vacuum thermal evaporation and plasma-enhanced- chemical vapour deposition, namely: larger optical bandgaps and also larger refractive-index values have been measured from UV/vis/NIR spectroscopy; a significant reduction of the intensity of the diffraction features, and also changes in the characteristic spacings, have been observed in the X-ray diffraction patterns of the

We measured the glass transition temperature, density, elastic moduli, Raman and x-ray photoelectron spectra of the glass. The five samples exhibit almost same glass transition temperature, and almost same elastic moduli. The density of the glasses increases, and reaches a maxium value at the glass containing 12.5%Ge, and then decreases with increasing Ge concentration. Raman scattering measurements indicate that, with increasing Ge concentration, the intensity of the corner- sharing vibrational mode of GeSe4/2 tetrahedral at 199cm–1 increases, and that of AsSe3/2 pyramidal unit at 228cm–1 becomes gradually weak. Moreover, some features related to the Se-chains appears in Se-rich sample of Ge20As10Se70. Ge, As and Se 3d x-ray photoelectron spectra show that the evolution of the differrent structural units is in good agreement with the Raman scattering analysis. The present resutls indicate that, the chemical compositions of the glasses with the same MCN have negligible effect on the network connectivity in the five different samples, but indeed change the local chemcial surroundings as evident by Raman and XPS measurements. Keywords: chalcogenide glasses, GeAsSe, Mean coordination number, Chemical compositions.

0237 | Ultra Thin Glass Sheet: Properties and Potential Applications Katsutoshi Fujiwara1*, Yoshiharu Miwa1, Yasuo Yamazaki1, Tomoki Yanase2, Masahiro Tomamoto1 1LCD Glass Division, Nippon Electric Glass Co.,Ltd., Takatsuki, Japan, *[email protected] 2Technical Division, Nippon Electric Glass Co.,Ltd., Otsu, Japan An ultra thin glass sheet between 50 with 200 μm in thickness was developed by using the over flow down- draw method. This ultra thin glass sheet has great potential for new applications such as flexible substrates for displays and Li batteries. The ultra thin glass maintains the excellent properties of glass and provides additional functions as a result of its ultra thin nature. The ultra thin glass sheet has a composition of non alkali alumina silicate glass widely used for TFT-LCD glass substrate. Its extremely smooth surface is achieved by overflow forming. Its transmittance is higher than that of ordinary plastic films. And its gas transmission rate is below detection limits, resulting in satisfactory gas barrier property requirements, especially for OLED application. The thinness brings very high flexibility to the glass sheet so that the glass sheet is suitable for roll-to-roll processing. Furthermore the ultra thin glass sheet is environmentally-friendly because of its smaller volume and lighter weight compared with ordinary glass sheet, so it will reduce resource consumption for transportation and waste emission. We believe that the ultra thin glass sheet will contribute to future society. Keywords: overflow, flexible, gas barrier, ultra thin glass substrate, environmentally-friendly

Barbosa1* 1Universidade estadual de Campinas – UNICAMP, Instituto de Física, Campinas-SP 2Universidade Estadual de Campinas – Faculdade de Engenharia Elétrica – UNICAMP-SP, e-mail: [email protected] In this work we study the bend loss properties of Photonic Crystal Fibers (PCFs) with several hollow rings (varying from seven to then). PCFs with small (around 4 µm) and large (around 8 µm) core diameters were used for this purpose. The bend loss dependency of the optical fibers was characterized through optical transmittance spectrum using an optical spectrum analyzer (OSA).The transmittance spectra were measured for different bends. The transmittance spectra of PCFs show to be insensitive to bends in comparison to that of conventional optical fibers. These PCFs could be used to Fiber-To-The-Home applications. Keywords: photonic optical fiber, fiber to the home, optical fiber.

(~0.5-5 μm). TeO2-WO3, TeO2-WO3-La2O3 and TeO2-WO3-La2O3-Bi2O3 glasses of different composition were produced by melting oxide mixtures in platinum or gold crucible at 800 °C inside the sealed quartz device in purified oxygen atmosphere. Ultrahigh-purity initial oxides were used for glasses preparation. The total content of Cu, Mn, Fe, Co and Ni impurities was measured by the atomic-emission spectral analysis with chemical concentration and was not more than 0.5 ppm wt in glasses and below 0.1 ppm wt in the initial oxides.

Crystallisation stability characterized by Tx-Tg =150-190 °C was demonstrated for high purity TeO2-WO3 glasses by DSC measurements. In the La2O3-containing glasses, the thermal effects of crystallization and fusion of the crystallized phases were not observed. The hydroxyl groups absorption coefficients of the tellurite glasses at the maximum of the absorption band (λ ~ 3 μm) lay in the region 0.01-0.001 cm–1. The optical absorption losses, measured by the laser calorimetry method at λ = 1.06, 1.56 and 2 μm, did not exceed 40–120 dB/km. Several optical fibers with optical losses less than 100 dB/km were produced from high-purity

Bal’zhinimaev Boreskov Institute of Catalysis of Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences – BIC – prospekt Akademika Lavrentieva, 5, 630090, Novosibirsk, Russia, e-mail: [email protected] The novel generation of catalysts based on glass fiber materials of silicate origin was recently discovered for catalysis area. Basing on NMR, IRS, SAXS, XPS, HREM etc the framework structure where Zr(IV) cations serve as a connectors linked with a few SiO4 tetrahedra was proposed. The effective ways of transition ions (Pt, Pd, Ru etc.) incorporation into the bulk of glass and their stabilization in the highly dispersed (<1 nm in size) or in unusual low-valent state, as well as strengthening their acidity and basicity were found. Despite of low content of noble metals (ca. 0.01% wt.) these catalysts showed unique performance in many chemical reactions resulted from the ability of glassmatrix to stabilize the highly dispersed states and to act as a specific membrane permeable for polar or polarizable molecules only. The specific heat/mass transfer properties, original geometry, high flexibility and high mechnical strength give the way to develop new catalytic technologies and novel reactor design. The set of successful examples of glass fiber catalysts applications in solution of various problems in petrochemistry (selective hydrogenation processes), environmental protection (VOC removal, VOCl’s and dioxins destruction, deNOx, reduction of CO2 emission) are listed. Keywords: glass fiber materials, catalysts, petrochemistry, environmental protection.

0362 | Electromagnetic wave absorption properties of surface-modified glass fabric reinforcements Göksu Gürer 1, Özlem Aydın Çivi 2, Arcan F. Dericioğlu1* 1*Middle East Technical University, Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, Inonu Bulv., 06531 Ankara, Turkey, e-mail: [email protected] 2Middle East Technical University, Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering In today’s world of intensive wireless communication and data transfer, interaction of electromagnetic waves originating from different sources leading to interference, and hence decrease in the quality and misinterpretation of the transferred data can be avoided by the use of appropriate absorbing and shielding materials. In this study, electromagnetic wave absorption potential of surface-modified glass fiber woven fabrics ordinarily used as reinforcement material in glass fiber-reinforced plastic (GFRP) structural composites has been investigated. Surface conductivities of as-received E-glass woven fabrics were tailored by the application of various metallic coatings. Electromagnetic wave reflection and transmission behavior of single- layered and multilayered, surface-modified glass fabric structures were evaluated at 18 – 27 GHz range (IEEE K Band) using free – space method. Metallic coating thickness, and hence surface conductivity of the glass fabrics was correlated to their electromagnetic wave reflection property. Graded ordering of surface-modified single layers resulted in multilayer reinforcement structures with electromagnetic wave absorption up to 85%. Such multilayered structures are presented as promising reinforcement candidates for electromagnetic wave absorbing polymer matrix structural composites. Keywords: electromagnetic wave absorption, multilayered composites, glass fiber reinforcement, surface modification, free-space method.

These models are capable of evaluating the effect of IS machine timings, glass conditions, parison design, and mold cooling strategies on final container quality. Accurate simulations must include large surface

deformations, viscoelastic behavior, conjugate heat transfer, and the contact phenomena at the glass-mold interface. One of the areas of greatest uncertainty in the models is the heat transfer coefficient (htc) between the glass and molds which is critical to determine the spatial and time-varying heat removal. To increase the accuracy of the forming models, a study was initiated to analytically and experimentally quantify htc. A 1D finite-difference model was developed to calculate heat flux from the mold. These measurements were taken in both a controlled experimental setting and on an IS container forming machine at the Emhart Glass Research Center (EGRC). The resultant heat flux was used to determine the glass surface temperature distribution and heat transfer coefficient. A secondary goal of the study was to isolate the effects of operating conditions. The effects of initial mold temperature, initial glass temperature, and pressing pressure on the resulting heat fluxes and htc were determined experimentally. A simplified first order predictive model for heat flux and heat transfer coefficients was developed. Keywords: blank side, container forming, heat transfer coefficient, glass-mold interface, numerical model, experimental, simulation.

0208 | Lubricants – A simple way for surface improvement of glass Heiko Hessenkemper*, Heide Landfermann-Hessenkemper, Christina Hartwig, Mathias Hötzel University of Mining and Technology Freiberg- Institute of Ceramic, Glass and Construction Materials In the past lubricants were only used in the glass industry to control the heat transfer between glass and mould, to optimize the forming process and to reduce the corrosion of the mould material. The project „LubriGlass“ has the goal to develop lubricants for different glass to improve the mechanical and chemical properties of glass. This project is supported by the BMWF. To improve the glass properties aluminum-enriched lubricants are used. We achieve an increase of the internal pressure in container glass by 30% combined with a decreased standard deviation. This opens up the way for decreasing weight for container glass where. In fact more than 50 percent of all costs by container glass production are influenced by the weight. The use of the lubricants is similar to the normal procedure and therefore it is easy to implement this into the normal production. Another aspect is seen using aluminum- enriched lubricants: The chemical resistant of glass is improved. The new lubricant can also be used for other glass industries, like table ware or flat glass. The measurement of the hydrolytic stability of lead crystal glass has shown a strong reduction of the lead release well behind the existing limits. For flat glass production an increase of 50% of the hydrolytic resistance is easy to achieve. Keywords: glass forming, lubricant, hydrolytic resistance, aluminum, strength.

0250 | Origin of in homogeneity in glass melts Martin Jensen*, Ralf Keding, Yuanzheng Yue Section of Chemistry, Aalborg University, 9000 Aalborg, Denmark, e-mail: [email protected] The homogeneity of a glass plays a crucial role in many applications as the inhomogeneities can provide local changes in mechanical properties, optical properties, and thermal expansion coefficient. Homogeneity is not a single property of the glass, instead, it consists of several factors such as bubbles, striae, trace element concentration, undissolved species, and crystallised species. As it is not possible to address all the factors in a single study, this work focuses on one of the major factors: chemical striae. Up to now, the quantification of chemical striae in glasses, particularly, in less transparent glasses, has been a challenge due to the lack of an applicable method. In this study, we have established a simple and accurate method for quantifying the extent of the striae, which is based on the scanning and picture processing through the Fourier transformation. By performing systematic variations of the melting conditions of iron bearing silicate melts, we identify the influence of melting duration, melting temperature, and size of raw materials on the homogeneity. Finally, we attempt to reveal the origin of chemical inhomogeneities of the glass melts in question. Keywords: homogeneity, striae, melting.

Redox behaviors of sulfur species in 14Na2O-10CaO-76SiO2+0.2Na2SO4 (mol%) glass melt were investigated by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The first peak at around –300mV and the second peak at around –500mV were detected in the voltammogram measured at 1300 °C. In our previous works, it was clarified that the second peak was attributed to the sulfate decomposition reaction, “SO42- +2e- →SO2 +2O2-”. In the present work, we attemped to identify the reaction at the first peak. Under varying the experimental 2- parameters such as the pulse width (tp) and the quantity of SO4 in the glass melt (CSO42-), it was found that 2- the first peak current was proportional to tp-1, and was almost independent of CSO4 . It became also clear 2- that the value of the second peak current was proportional to tp-0.5 and CSO4 . It was deduced that the first peak was the pre-peak of the sulfate decomposition reaction, and that it was originated from the adsorption reaction of SO2 on the electrode. Keywords: sulfate, sulfur dioxide, redox behavior, peak identification, differential pulse voltammetry.

In this work, two investigation tools were developed in parallel in the frame of a PhD thesis: (1) an original experimental facility and (2) a numerical software both providing data to be compared. Indeed, there is presently a lack of data in the open litterature regarding the two key-parameters of the process: displacements and temperature measured in wide-field during all the operation. The presentation will focus on the description of the original experimental set up designed around a forming/fusing furnace using only no-contact-devices applied on the upper face of the glass. The displacement measurement is based on two optical technics : image correlation coupled with fringe projection on a 10x14 cm² field. Due to glass transpacy in visible wavelength, the latter methods had to be adapted in order to enable image reflection. Furthermore, an infrared thermometer based on the application of Christiansen’s effect is used to determine the temperature on a 20 × 20 cm² field. The first results presented here are convincing and will be soon supplemented by further comparisons with our numerical model. Keywords: glass forming, no- contact measurements, Christiansen effect, image correlation, fringe analysis, pyrometer.

0306 | Electromagnetically enhanced flow in a special melter – physical modeling, numerical simulation and hands-on experience Uwe Krieger1*, Bernd Halbedel1, Vadims Geža2, Andris Jakovičs2, Ronald Iser3 1*University of Technology Ilmenau, Institute of Materials Engineering, Department of Inorganic-Nonmetallic Materials, – Ilmenau (Germany), e-mail: [email protected] 2University of Latvia, Faculty of Physics and Mathematics, VTPMML – Riga (Latvia) 3JSJ Jodeit GmbH – Jena-Maua (Germany) The optimization of glass melting is concentrated on energy reduction of the production process. Nevertheless the homogenization of the glass melt has to be obtained with an advanced level even with higher pull or reduced energy consumption. To achieve this additional or improved techniques are required. The scope of our work is the investigation and practical application of electromagnetic flow control which can be used for the acceleration of flows or modification of flow pattern and gives prospect to expand into an innovative technology for the homogenization in glass melts. The glass melt flow is electromagnetically enhanced by the Lorentz force, i.e. by the interaction of an electric current density and a magnetic flux density. The setup consists of two cylinders in a collinear arrangement which act as a feeder. The main component of the magnetic field is oriented in axial direction and results in an additional, azimuthal flow due to the radial electric current density. Physical modeling is used for the verification of numerical models which provides the analysis of essential relations and optimization of the equipment. An individual designed magnet system is adapted on a special melter (JSJ Jodeit GmbH) for the production of high-tech glasses e.g. applied for dental technology. Nevertheless in first experiments soda-lime glass is used which allows the collection of critical points. Details of the startup and practical experience can be addressed. Keywords: electromagnetic flow control, Lorentz force, homogenization, special melter.

Borosilicate glass substrate containing TiO2 was irradiated with 355nm second harmonic YVO4 laser under specified focus condition. With a galvano mirror, an individual laser pulse was shone at a different position. After irradiation, modified area of lower refractive index was formed at each irradiated position. The modified areas penetrated from irradiated surface to the other surface. The substrate was etched with etchant containing hydrofluoric acid. Because the modified areas were chemically weaker than mother glass, they were removed selectively by hydrofluoric acid and through-holes were formed. Maximum aspect ratio (thickness of substrate/diameter of holes) was about 15. The diameters of through-holes could be under 100 micrometers and could be adjusted arbitrary with selecting appropriate etching time. Because this process is free from mechanical or thermal stress, through holes can be arranged close to each other. So, these holes can be utilized as through substrate electrode. Keywords: laser, etching, through-hole.

0041 | Investigations on Na2O-H2O-SO2-CO2-containing flue gases from glass melters A. Neumann1*, W. Wilsmann1, R. Conradt1 1RWTH Aachen University-RWTH-Institute of Mineral Engineering-Aachen, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] The removal of noxious and air pollutant substances from exhaust gases makes an important contribution to environmental protection and has become a routine procedure in the glass industry. Nevertheless process control is still based on empirical data and on the experience of the plant operators. In the past, the occasional and unexpected occurrence of aggressive fluxes in the e-filters has bothered several operators. This is unsatisfactory since the occurrence could not be attributed in a clear way to any unfavourable boundary conditions. Thus, during the past years until today many researches have been investigated the Na2O-H2O-

SO2-CO2-system. However, neither the overall interrelationship nor the specific correlation for the flue gas cleaning was clarified. Investigations are presented on the thermodynamic and kinetic conditions in Na2O-H2O-

SO2-CO2-containing flue gases. The thermodynamic conditions are investigated by thermal analyses coupled mass spectroscopy and the kinetic behavior was studied by observation in a self constructed condensations tube. Investigations are particularly focused on the formation of liquid and solid sodium pyrosulphates and sodium bisulphates, as well as on their occurrence inside the flue gas filters.

Some directly, others indirectly. Programs include increasing usable strength of glass, increasing availability of recycled glass to melters, development of effective waste heat recovery technologies, and introduction of new, higher efficiency melting technologies. Each program will be described and their progress levels identified with expected times to completion.

0398 | Characterization of ashes from incineration of chromium-tanned leather shavings and their application as colorant in soda-lime container glass Diego Mendes1, Marcio M. Guimarães2, Marcos H. Gibim2, Samuel M. Toffoli3* 1Saint-Gobain Vidros, Fábrica Água Branca – Embalagens – São Paulo, Brazil 2Saint-Gobain Vidros, Centro Técnico de Elaboração do Vidro (CETEV) – São Paulo, Brazil 3Polytechnic School – University of São Paulo – São Paulo, Brazil, e-mail: [email protected] In the leather industry, there are many problems concerning waste disposal, since they can be toxic or carcinogenic. Nowadays, leather shavings are incinerated, and the remaining ashes are disposed in class 1 landfills. The ash is composed, in average, by 70 wt.% of chromium oxide. The glass industry uses chromite, a mineral composed by a solid solution of iron and chromium oxides, to obtain the green color in soda- lime glasses. The ashes could be a cheaper alternative to chromite as glass colorant, reducing the mineral extraction, and giving a proper destination to the chromium-tanned leather waste. In this paper, the ashes were characterized in terms of their mineralogical composition (X-ray diffraction), chemical composition (X-ray fluorescence), granulometric distribution (sieving), and were observed in a scanning electron microscope. Preliminary melting experiments, in laboratory scale, were carried out using a typical soda-lime glass composition, so that the final glass contained 2 wt.% of Cr2O3 from either chromite or ash. The glass samples were compared in terms of their chemical composition, bubble distribution, homogeneity and color (L*a*b* system and transmittance curve). The analysis of the results indicated that both sources of chromium showed similar performances. Upscale tests are now required, but it is expected that chromite can be replaced by the ashes, in industrial scale, thus resulting in savings for the glass industry and many environmental benefits. Keywords: ash, chromium, leather, chromite, colorant, soda-lime glass.

Watson2* 1Air Products Brasil Ltda, São Paulo-SP 2Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. Allentown, PA, USA, e-mail: [email protected] The Cleanfire® HGM™ (Hybrid Glass Melter) furnace combines oxy-fuel combustion over the unmelted batch and air-fuel combustion over the refining zone of a glass melting furnace. This offers a number of advantages over both air-fuel and oxy-fuel furnaces. Compared to an air-fuel furnace, the HGM furnace provides increased production, improved glass quality, fuel savings, better furnace temperature control, and a more stable batch pattern. Compared to 100% oxy-fuel, the HGM furnace delivers similar production levels, reduced levels of foam on the glass surface, lesser quantities of liquid oxygen stored at site for back-up, and lower overall oxygen costs. Two on-the-fly field implementations of HGM furnaces are presented. In the first, the regenerators for ports #1 and #2 had failed, and the desire was to maintain production while the regenerators were repaired. Several oxy-fuel applications were used during the repair, enabling the evaluation of different types of retrofit options available for HGM furnaces. In the second example, a furnace was scheduled for rebuild; however the desire was to maximize production until the end of the furnace campaign. Initially oxy-fuel boost burners coupled with lancing and general oxygen enrichment were used to maintain production levels. As the regenerators continued to deteriorate, the lances were moved down-tank and replaced by water-cooled Cleanfire® ThruPort™ oxy-fuel burners. Field observations and a summary of the benefits are presented. Keywords: Hybrid Glass Melter, furnace, oxy-fuel, regenerator repair, oxygen, lancing, boost, ThruPort, HGM.

The remaining is disposed in landfills at high costs. From 2010 the research project VALIRE co-financed by the EU LIFE+ program proposes advanced technological solutions for the reuse of slags and flying ashes produced by MWI as secondary raw materials (SRM). The partners involved are SASIL, an Italian company specialized in the treatment of recycled raw materials, SSV (Italian Glass Research Centre) and the Department of Materials Engineering of Padua University (Italy), experts on the vitrification of industrial wastes. The slags produced by MWI are quite inhomogeneous but, due to the lower hardness of the non-glassy components, two fractions could be separated by grinding process: a finer fraction rich in Ca and Mg silicates and a coarser one more homogeneous than the starting slag. The improved glassy fraction can be used combined to other SRM (including flying ashes from MWI) in batches for the production of: glass foams, stone and slag wools and glass ceramic products for external paving. Industrial solutions and economic benefits foreseen are: the volume reduction of waste disposal in landfill; saving of natural raw materials; reduction of energy consumption in the production process; new “ecologic” products with added value. Keywords: vitrification, slag, fly ashes, glassy building materials, energy saving, waste incinerators.

0211 | Energy efficiency simulations using fully coupled and controlled regenerative furnace model Miroslav Trochta1* 1Glass Service, Inc., Vsetin, Czech Republic, e-mail: [email protected] Full 3D CFD modeling of glass furnaces is increasingly becoming a standard tool for predictions of energy balance and glass quality. State of the art 3D furnace models usually include energy transfer inside the furnace and between furnace and the surroundings. Real regenerative furnaces are complex systems with complex interactions among regenerators, combustion chamber(s), glass melt and control systems. To achieve good accuracy and realistic response of numerical models of glass furnaces, especially in optimization studies aimed at energy savings, the models should include all these interactions. GS Glass Furnace Model has been enhanced to have the 3D regenerator model integrated with the furnace model. Thus, changes inside the furnace influence behavior of regenerators and vice versa. Behavior of the control system is mimicked too – gas and air flow rates and other inputs are automatically adjusted to maintain specified temperatures at controlled thermocouple locations. An example case study, focused on energy savings, on an industrial size cross-fired regenerative float furnace, is presented. The study demonstrates how the model reacts on changes in furnace design and operating parameters. The cases are compared and differences in energy balance and glass quality are interpreted.

0457 | Down converting coating based on ZnS:Mn nanoparticles embedded in sol-gel or polymer matrix Marta Dai Prè1, Alessandro Martucci1*, Joao Antonio Bomfim 2 1Università di Padova, Dipartimento di Ingegneria Meccanica Settore Materiali, Italy 2Centro Ricerche Plast-optica, Amaro (UD), Italy Thermalization is one of the main mechanisms leading to losses in solar cells: when an electron–hole pair with energy greater than the band gap is created, the excess energy is lost as heat because electron and hole relax, respectively, to the conduction and valence band edges. Thermalization losses can be reduced via down-conversion where, for example, a photon with twice the energy of the band gap is converted into two photons with exactly the energy of the band gap. Among the different investigated down-converting materials, ZnS doped with transition metal ions appear the more interesting. A stable and narrowly distributed dispersion of Mn-doped ZnS (sphalerite) nanoparticles (NPs) with an average diameter of 1-2 nm, has been synthesized via chemical precipitation without using any surfactant.

The surface of the NPs has been functionalized with acrylic acid for compatibilization with SiO2-ZrO2 sol- gel hybrid organic-inroganic matrix and polymethylmetacrylate (PMMA) matrix. A thorough morphological and optical characterization of the NPs is proposed. A high nonlinearity in the response of the material is evidenced, with the maximum of luminescence obtained with 5% mol Mn doping. The structure and the optical properties of the nanocomposites have been also characterized. Keywords: sol-gel, ZnS:Mn, down conversion, nanocomposite, photoluminescence, nanoparticles.

INVITED 0492 | Adsorption reactions and polymer SPEAKER interfaces with multicomponent glass surfaces Carlo G. Pantano Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Materials Research Institute, The Pennsylvania State University, Pennsylvania, USA There is much known about small-molecule adsorption and polymer bonding on high-surface-area amorphous silica and silica films on silicon, but much less so in the case of multi-component silicate glasses and glass fibers. Of particular significance for organic coatings and polymer adhesives is the atomic-scale chemical heterogeneity of multi-component glass surfaces with respect to adsorption and interfacial bonding, and in the case of aqueous systems, the simultaneous leaching and hydration of the glass surface. We have used a variety of experimental techniques to probe glass surfaces and surface adsorption directly, and computer simulations to guide and help interpret the experimental work (NMR, FTIR, XPS, NEXAFS, IGC, and TPD). The specific effects of boron, sodium and water interacting with alcohol and carboxylic-acid functionalities at the surface of multicomponent silicate glasses will be emphasized. Keywords: glass surfaces, multicomponent silicate glasses, polymer interfaces.

0051 | Precise XPS depth profile of soda-lime-silica glassusing C60 ion beam Yuichi Yamamoto*, Kiyoshi Yamamoto Asahi glass Co., Ltd.,1150 Hazawa-cho Kanagawa-ku Yokohama Japan, e-mail: [email protected] Ar ion sputtering is one of the most accepted techniques for depth profiling in practical X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, while this technique is known to be inadequate for quantitative analysis of glass including mobile ions such as soda-lime-silica glass. Buckminsterfullerene (C60) ion sputtering has been recently recognized to suppress the degradation of organic materials1,2, while the application has not been reported for inorganic materials yet. Here, for the precise depth profiling on glass surface, C60 ion sputtering was applied to suppress the migration of mobile ions in glass. In our best knowledge, it is the first time to succeed the precise XPS depth analysis of soda-lime-silica glass (70.4SiO2, 0.9Al2O3, 7.3MgO, 7.8CaO, 3 13.6Na2O in mol%) without compositional change by using C60 ion sputtering . The precise analysis revealed that the ion implantation during Ar ion sputtering principally resulted in the compositional change due to the migration of mobile ions. 1. Y. Yamamoto, N.

0234 | Lead crystal glass corrosion in ethanol and acids Helena Hradecka, Veronika Hornychova, Stepan Pech, Ales Helebrant* Faculty of Chemical Technology ICT Prague – Department of Glass and Ceramics – Prague, Czech Republic, e-mail: [email protected] The lead crystal glass samples (24 wt% PbO) prepared by blowing or pressing were corroded in 4% acetic acid, in 50% ethanol, in distilled water and in dilute HCl (pH 3, 4 or 5). The corrosion can be described by selective leaching of potassium and lead as result of interdiffusion in glass surface. The glass network dissolution can be neglected in this case. The most rapid leaching was found in acetic acid which seems to be an appropriate testing solution. The lowest leached amounts were observed in ethanol. Increasing pH in HCl solution leads to decreasing of leaching rate both for K and Pb. However, neither after long-term leaching (158 days) in acetic acid the Pb concentration in leachate did not exceed the maximal limits permitted by ISO 7086 standard for 24 hours. The forming process and following treatment of glass can influence the chemical durability considerably. Both K and Pb are leached faster from cullet samples prepared from pressed glass compared to the blowed one. Decreased Pb concentration was found in near surface of both chemically and flame polished glass, compared to unpolished samples. This fact resulted in slower leaching of Pb from

polished samples into acetic acid. XPS measurements also documented the difference in potassium and lead concentration profiles in different places of glass product which can influence the results obtained by different type of leaching tests. Keywords: lead crystal glass, glass corrosion.

0497 | Structure and reactivity of glass surfaces from atomistic computer simulations Alastair Cormack1*, Antonio Tilocca2 and Jincheng Du1 1Kazuo Inamori School of Engineering, New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University 2Department of Chemistry, University College London, e-mail: [email protected] Many properties of glasses, ranging from chemical durability or bioactivity, to crack propagation are governed ultimately by the atomic scale structure of the surface of the glass. This is because it is at this level that the chemical processes which control these properties operate. In this presentation, we will discuss the application of atomistic computer simulation techniques to the development of a picture of the surface structure of silicate glasses and the nature of the reactive sites which exist on these surfaces. Both classical and quantum mechanical approaches are used because they each have their own advantages. We will describe the structure of the reactive sites in terms of defect structures, that is, structural features which do not exist in the corresponding bulk glasses. We will also show how water molecules, both isolated, in the gas phase (typical of environmental species), and in liquid water, interact with the glass surface. Both physisorption and chemisorption are observed. Keywords: glass surfaces, glass structure, atomistic simulations, molecular dynamics, first principles calculations.

Podchorążych 1, 30-084 Kraków, E-mail: [email protected] The growth of plants vegetation produced in solar houses depend of total energy passing to the inside. The energy transfer is mainly depend on total light reflectance. The lower reflection coefficient, the more energy coming in. According to reliable sources reducing 1% of total reflection coefficient cause 3% increase of plant biological mass. Decrease of reflectance one may be to achieve by deposition of thin films with strict thickness fulfilled negative interference conditions. There is expensive and complicated technology. Alternatively the lowering of reflectance may be obtain by mechanical or chemical roughening of one side of glass slab. Particularly susceptible for surface modifications is glass obtained in Pittsburgh technology. In this work the optical properties of glasses studied by the means classical and non-standard measurement method have been presented namely TIS (total integrated scatter) BSDF (bidirectional scatter distributution function), speckle methods and optical profilometry. For micro and nanoscale characterization of glass surface the complementary AFM measurements were performed. The studies show significantly decrease lowering promising resulting the chemical glass surface processing. Keywords: optical reflectance, surface chemical, mechanical treating.

A lot of studies about lithium ion conduting oxide glass electrolytes have been reported. The increase of lithium ion concentration in glass electrolytes is an effective technique to prepare highly conducting glasses1. Although most oxide glasses were prepared by the melt quenching method, glasses with high alkali content have been prepared by the mechanochemical method using a planetary ball mill apparatus2. In the present study, oxide glass electrolytes in the systems

Li2O-MxOy (M=B, P, Si, Ge and Al) were prepared via mechanochemical route. FT-IR and Raman spectra suggested that local structure of the mechanochemical glasses was similar to that of the melt-quenched glasses. The glasses with high Li2O content exhibited relatively high conductivity as lithium ion conducting oxides; the conductivity of the pelletized glass at the orthoborate composition • -7 -1 75Li2O 25B2O3 (mol%) was 3.4 × 10 S cm at room temperature. Mechanochemical synthesis is a useful route for developing oxide glass electrolytes with high lithium ion concentration. 1. M. Tatsumisago et al., J. Non-Cryst. Solids, 95-96 (1987) 857-864. 2. A.

0086 | Ionic glasses like ionic crystals or electrolytic solutions? Jean Louis Souquet Laboratoire d’Electrochimie et de Physicochimie des Matériaux et des Interfaces, Grenoble-INP, BP 75, 38402 Saint Martin D’Hères Cedex, F Since ionic glasses are ionic solids and supercooled liquids, their ionic transport properties can be approached by two different ways. The first one consists to extend to them the usual punctual defect theory currently developed for transport in ionic crystals. Diffusion studies suggest that, for alkali or silver conductive oxide glasses, defects would be interstitial cationic pairs, for instance two alkali cations sharing a same non-bridging oxygen. These positively charged defects, migrating from one non-bridging oxygen to another one are the effective charge carriers. Following an alternative description, these interstitial pairs can be considered as resulting from a partial self- ionisation as observed in weak electrolyte solutions. The discontinuity in the ionic migration mechanism below and above the glass transition temperature provide an original way to calculate the concentration and mobility of interstitial pairs in the supercooled and glassy states whose numerical values are coherent with data obtained by other different techniques on ionic crystals or electrolytic solutions. The usual concepts developed for the thermodynamic of solutions allow a quantitative interpretation of the high sensibility of ionic conductivity to glass composition. Finally, ionic glasses being an intermediate state between solid and liquid electrolytes, allow the reunification of two apparently different approaches. Keywords: ionic conductivity defects, mobility, charge carrier, thermodynamics.

0258 | Improvement of electrochemical performance of all-solid-state

lithium secondary batTeries by using Li2S-P2S5 solid electrolyte thin films Atsushi Sakuda1*, Akitoshi Hayashi1, Takamasa Ohtomo2, Shigenori Hama2, Masahiro Tatsumisago1 1Department of Applied Chemistry, Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka Prefecture University, 1-1 Gakuen-cho, Naka-ku, Sakai, Osaka 599-8531, Japan 2Battery Research Div., Toyota Motor Corporation, Higashifuji Technical Center, 1200 Mishuku, Susono, Shizuoka 410-1193, Japan

Glass and glass-ceramic solid electrolytes in the system Li2S-P2S5 have high lithium-ion conductivity of 10-4-10-3 S cm-1 at room temperature1. The glass electrolytes have been prepared by melt quenching and mechanical milling techniques. In this study, amorphous Li2S-P2S5 thin films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition, and the electrolyte thin films were applied for bulk-type all-solid-state lithium secondary batteries.

The chemical composition and local structure of the 80Li2S·20P2S5 (mol%) thin films were in good agreement with those of the 80Li2S·20P2S5 glass powder prepared by mechanical milling. The lithium-ion conductivity of -4 -1 o the 80Li2S·20P2S2 thin films was about 10 S cm at 25 C. The electrolyte/electrode composite materials were prepared by coating the 80Li2S·20P2S5 electrolyte film onto the LiCoO2 electrode particles. The all- solid-state lithium secondary batteries using the 80Li2S·20P2S5-coated LiCoO2 were charged and discharged, and exhibited excellent cyclability. The battery performance of the cell using 80Li2S·20P2S5-coated LiCoO2 was highly improved in comparison with that of the cell using non-coated LiCoO2. An effective lithium-ion conducting path to the LiCoO2 electrode was formed by the electrolyte coatings on the LiCoO2 particles. The electrolyte-coating technique allows us to fabricate all-solid-state lithium batteries with large energy density. 1. A. Hayashi, K. Minami, and M. Tatsumisago, J. Non-cryst.

0244 | Mixed conduction in tungsten phosphate glass system Isaias Oliva1*, Atsunobu Masuno1 and Hiroyuki Inoue1 1Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo, 4-6-1 Komaba, Meguro, Tokyo 153-8505 Japan, e-mail: [email protected] It has been found that tungsten phosphate glasses presented mixed conduction behavior after the absorption of hydrogen. The glass system 45xMO1/2- 45(1-x)WO3- 25NbO5/2- 30PO5/2 (M = alkali ion and x = 0.5,...,1.0) were prepared and heat-treated under hydrogen atmosphere. The electrical conductivity analysis using impedance measurement was applied changing the alkali or the content of the alkali in the composition. In both cases, the hydrogen was absorbed into the glasses and the conductivity increased with the amount of the absorption. It was found that in the high alkali region the alkali ion was responsible for the conduction mechanism. On the other hand, the electronic conduction became predominant and the increase of the conductivity was remarkable in the high WO3 region. In the middle x region, the conductivity reached a minimum, indicating of the mixed conduction. The minimum conductivity was, however, relatively high compared with other mixed conductor glasses. Keywords: phosphates glasses, transition metal ion, mixed conduction, electronic-ionic conduction, heat treatment.

0293 | Characterization and optimization of TMO containing glasses Cristina Siligardi1, Consuelo Mugoni1,*, Guido Ori1, Monia Montorsi1 1*Dipartimento di Ingegneria dei Materiali e dell’Ambiente, Facoltà di Ingegneria, Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia, Via Vignolese 905, Modena, Italy, e-mail: [email protected] Glasses containing transition metal ions (TMI) are known to show different kind of functional properties, such as semi-conduction and peculiar optical and magnetic properties. Electronic conduction in these glasses is determined by the presence of the TM ions in different valence states and the conductivity can be described in terms of small polaron hopping between the low and the high valence states of TMI1,2. Many studies are reported on the conductive properties of vanadium and copper based glasses, in which a great importance is related to the different V and Cu oxidation and coordination states they present in relation of the structural and functional properties that can be obtained, as the case of electron conductivity properties. The addition of a modifier cation strongly affect the conduction mechanism makes them mixed electronic- ionic conductors3,4, which are of potential interest in solid-state devices. For these reasons, different Vanadium-based and Copper-based glass systems (Silicon and Phosphorous as Network former) has been chosen as starting compositions, to quantify the effect of the Vanadium and Copper content on the physical properties of the glass material. X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, Differential thermal analysis, heating microscope, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XPS) have been used to characterize the glasses. The behavior of the conductivity has been studied as a function of TMO/Network former ratio. 1. MURAWSY L., CHUNG C.H., MACKENZIE J.D., J. Non-cryst. Solids, 32 (1979), 91. 2.

50B2O3-15PbO-(35-x)Li2O-xNa2O and 50B2O3-15PbO-(35-x)LiF-xNaF glasses Fábio A. S. Ferreira1*, Antonio C. Hernandes1 1Grupo de Pesquisa Crescimento de Cristais e Materiais Cerâmicos(CCMC), Instituto de Física de São Carlos, Universidade de São Paulo- USP. CEP 13560-970 São Carlos, SP, Brasil, e-mails: www.ccmc.ifsc.usp.br, [email protected] A phenomenon known as mixed alkali effect (MAE) is observed when two types of alkali ions are introduced into a glassy network. It represents the non-linear variations exhibiting a minima or maxima in many physical properties associated with the alkali ion movement and structural properties, when one type of alkali ion is gradually replaced by another, keeping the total alkali content constant [1]. We have modified some borate glassy systems to study optical and structural properties in the last 10 years. In this work the goal was to verify if there is (or not) the non-linear behavior in 50B2O3-15PbO-(35-x) Li2O-xNa2O and 50B2O3-15PbO-(35-x) LiF- xNaF glasses. The effect of F into glassy network will be discussed. Glass transition temperature, density and ionic conductivity measurements have showed the occurrence of MAE. Infrared and Raman studies showed changes from 3 to 4 in the coordination number of boron. 1. N. Srinivasa Rao et al, Physica B 404 (2009) 1785-1789.

0429 | Microstructural and electrical characterization of phase separated glasses: use of near field microscopy A. A. Piarristeguy1, M. Ramonda2, M. Ribes1, A. Pradel1* 1Institut Charles Gerhardt Montpellier, Équipe Physicochimie des Matériaux Désordonnés et Poreux, CC1503, Université Montpellier 2, Pl. E. Bataillon, F-34095 Montpellier Cedex 5, France 2Laboratoire de Microscopie en Champ Proche (LMCP), Université de Montpellier II, F-34095 Montpellier Cedex 5, France Ge-Se(S) glasses have been widely studied due to their extended vitreous domain involving the study of a great variety of properties and their correlation with structure and composition. In particular the electrical properties are strongly affected by the addition of metals (Li+, Na+, Ag+). The combined investigation of electrical conductivity by complex impedance spectroscopy (CIS) and microstructure by Electric Field Microscopy (EFM) helped us to characterise the electrical heterogeneousness existing in several Ag-based chalcogenide glasses. While the (Ag2S)x(GeS)60(GeS2)40-x glasses were shown to be homogeneous, sulphide (Ag2S)x(GeS2)100-x and (Ag2S)x(As2S3)100-x and selenide Agx(Ge0.25Se0.75)100-x glasses show heterogeneousness. Such heterogeneousness is the electrical signature of a phase separation existing in the glasses. The obtained data helped us in identifying the phase separation and the subsequent percolation threshold as being responsible for the large jump occurring in the conductivity curve of these materials.

An electrical characterization of the micro(nano)phases present in the Agx(Ge0.25Se0.75)100-x glasses was carried out using two complentary techniques of near field microscopy, i.e. the Electric force microscopy (EFM) and the conducting atomic force microscopy (C-AFM)). Changes in the relative permittivity were found for both phases when the silver content is changed. Furthermore, the sensitivity of the C-AFM technique revealed current variations of a few pico-amperes in the Ag-rich phase for the different glass compositions. This result confirmed that the increase in conductivity of the Ag-Ge-Se samples in the region of high ionic conduction (x > 8-10% at.) arose from an increase in conductivity of the Ag-rich phase and not from an increase in amount of Ag-rich phase with a fixed composition and conductivity. Keywords: Ag chalcogenide glasses, phase separation, near field microscopy, conductivity.

INVITED 0377 | Low poisson ratio perfect glasses SPEAKER formed by amorphising zeolites G.N. Greaves1*, F. Kargl2 1Centre for Advanced Functional Materials and Devicesm – Institute of Mathematics and Physics, Aberystwyth University, Aberystwyth SY23 3BZ, UK, e-mail: [email protected] 2Institute of Materials Physics in Space, German Aerospace Center, Helmholtz Association, Linder, Höhe, 51147 Köln, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] By using in situ X-ray diffraction, inelastic X-ray scattering and magic angle spinning NMR we have identified glasses with very low Poisson Ratios formed during the collapse of zeolite crystals. The glasses also have very low entropy and are “ideal” or “perfect”. By approaching the glass transition from below rather than from above, the crystallisation problems that face melt-quenching procedures in the search for these unusual and rare amorphous materials can be minimised. The amorphisation process separates into a displacive crystalline-amorphous transition resulting in the low entropy phase followed by a disordering amorphous- amorphous transition leading to a higher entropy phase equivalent to glass made by the conventional melt- quenching route. From the relaxation time which governs microporous collapse the kinetic fragility of the low entropy glassy phase is found to be much lower than for a conventional melt and the glass transition temperature higher. Moreover the degrees of non-ergodicity, mechanical non-deformability and chemical order obtained spectroscopically for these low entropy glass are significantly greater than for melt-quenched glasses. In particular Poisson’s ratio for these “perfect glasses” is close to zero whilst the melt fragility during amorphisation is virtually twice the strength of liquid SiO2, the model strong liquid. Keywords: glass transition, low entropy glasses, microporous materials, zero poisson’s ratio, super strong.

Since the pioneering work of Dubois and Portier1, numerous oxyhalide systems based on Sb2O3 have been investigated. This work reports glass formation in multicomponent systems based on the Sb2O3- SrCl2 association. The observed limits of the vitreous areas are given in the Sb2O3-SrCl2-CdCl2 ternary system and in selected areas of quaternary systems: Sb2O3-

(0.5RCln+0.5SrCl2)-CdCl2; Sb2O3-CdCl2-(0.7SrCl2+0.3BaCl2); Sb2O3-SrCl2-(0.5ZnCl2 0.5CdCl2) with R= (Li, Na, Ca). In most cases Sb2O3 concentration must be kept between 50 and 90 mol %. Glass transition temperature Tg is close to 300 °C. The thermal stability range Tx-Tg is larger than 100 °C for most glasses. Surprisingly enough, Tg value increases when chloride content increases. This evolution is discussed by reference to structural hypothesis. Refractive index is close to 2. Both refractive index and

Vickers microhardness decrease with Sb2O3 content. The evolution of the elastic moduli is reported in the

0045 | Formation and properties of nitrogen rich glass Sharafat Ali*, Bo Jonson School of Engineering, Department of Chemistry –Glass Group Linnæus University SE-351 95 Växjö, Sweden. corresponding Author: Sharafat Ali, e-mail: [email protected] Oxynitride glasses are a branch of high performance glasses, obtained by incorporation of nitrogen atoms into oxide glass network. It has been widely established that the incorporation of a relatively small amount of nitrogen leads to a significant change of the glass network, and therefore to a strong change of the properties. Oxynitride glasses have traditionally been synthesized by melting mixtures of glass modifier metal oxides, SiO2 and Si3N4, yielding glasses with nitrogen content up to typically ca. 30 e/o. However, a novel synthesis method (developed by our group), in which the modifier is introduced as a pure metal or metal hydride has enabled the preparation of oxynitride glasses with significantly higher concentrations of nitrogen up to 60 e/o as well as modifier additives up to 45 e/o. The obtained glasses are found to be homogenous, translucent gray to opaque black. Compare with their oxide glass counterparts, oxynitride glasses show high values of glass transition temperature (1050oC), microhardness (10.50 GPa), Young’s modulus (151 GPa) and refractive index (1.93). Keywords: oxynitride glass, glass forming region, high nitrogen content, glass transition temperature, hardness, refractive index.

0410 | Overview about sources of blisters from refractories – issue of blister tests – necessary improvements Dr. Michael Dunkl Dr. M. Dunkl Consulting, Meerbusch, Germany Beside of knots, cords and stones, blisters in glass are the most important and refused glass defects. The source of a large amount of the blisters is their generation due to their contact with the glass melts. The most important possible sources of the blister formation on the boundary- or reaction layer refractory material / glass melt will be discussed. For the determination of the blistering rate many different measurement methods are used. Their results are usually not really comparable. The issue of different blistering tests will be presented. Therefore it is necessary to develop a standard test procedure which is affordable and reliable. A joint group of TC11 / TC14 is working to develop a standard test procedure which is affordable and reliable. Under consideration of all known advantages and disadvantages of the various blistering tests and the important influences to their issues, the necessary improvements will be discussed.

0358 | Mechanisms of blister formation at refractories Detlef Koepsel1* 1*SchottAG, Research and Technology Development, Mainz, Germany, e-mail: [email protected] Refractories represent an important source of blisters in glass melts causing an undesired “background” blister level. In order to decrease the number of refractory blisters the mechanisms of blister formation have to be understood first of all. There are different sources and mechanisms of blister formation: • bubbles forming if closed pores in the refractory material are opened during the refractory corrosion process; • bubbles forming due to surface impurities, which are especially observed in the beginning of a glass tank journey; • bubbles forming due to bulk impurities in the refractory materials, such as carbon, nitrogen and polyvalent elements; • bubbles forming due to supersaturation of gases in the corrosion boundary layer. These different mechanisms cause different initial gas compositions of the bubbles, which have to be known in order to assign bubbles found the product to the right source, i.e. the refractory material or to any other source in the glass melting tank. In the lab scale the best method to analyse “fresh” refractory bubbles is the Raman spectroscopy. This method can provide information on the gas composition of bubbles adherent to the refracrory interface. With other methods such as mass spectrometry only bubbles detached from the refractory interface can be analysed. In this case the bubble had some time to change the gas composition. This in turn impedes the understanding of the bubble formation mechanism. Keywords: refractory blister formation, electrochemistry, supersaturation, refractory corrosion.

0394 | Studying bubble glass defects caused by refractory materials Erik H.P.H. Muijsenberg1*, Jiri ullrich1 1Glass Service Inc. Rokytnice 60, 75501 Vsetin, Czech Republic, e-mail: [email protected] Glass is mostly transparent material not only at low temperatures but also in the melting temperature region. This property makes possible to continually observe, record and evaluate some phenomena or processes taking part in a glass melt. The high temperature observation (HTO) procedures being useful in the chemical engineering research can be thus introduced into the examination of the refractory blistering. The selected refractory sample is inserted into the glass melt at given high temperature; the bubble release from the surface is recorded. Visual inspection of the video files from the tests as well as the evaluation of the bubble quantities above the sample surface in dependence on time provide the comparison of the tested samples. The duration of the test is 2-5 days; generally it depends on the testing temperature and composition of the used glass. The limitation of the test is usually silica crucible corrosion and glass leak. Resulting from many bubble gas analyses provided within the past years, most of origins of the bubble defects are refractory related. The bubble evolution by different mechanisms on the phase boundary refractory- glass melt deteriorates considerably the quality of glass and sometimes even accelerates the local refractory corrosion as well. The detailed knowledge of the bubble releasing process provides also valuable information for furnace engineers in case that they are seeking for reduction of defect bubbles in produced glass. Bubbles in glass melts mostly undergo a complicated history, characterized by their interaction with glass, which affects bubble fundamental properties: their size and composition in particular. The history of different types of defect bubbles is thoroughly examined by laboratory tests which reveal bubble arising mechanism from refractories, describe bubble sizes and analyze their composition under conditions of industrial glass melting. The knowledge base of bubble properties may be obtained, usable for comparison between laboratory modeled and industrially produced bubble defects and thus for identification of the industrial defect bubble source Keywords: ICG TC11, refractory defects, glass quality, bubbles.

The structures and optical properties of Nb2O5-

SrO-P2O5 glasses have been generally investigated by using Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, O1s X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and 31P solid state NMR. From the results of Fourier

transform infrared spectroscopy, adding Nb2O5 to the glasses as the intermediate results in the form of P-O-Nb bonds and Nb-O-Nb bonds. When the con-

tent of P2O5 >50 mole%, the Nb2O5 plays the role of glass network modifier. Moreover, the NMR spectra indicated that the glass structures of Q3 and Q2 are transferred to those of Q2 and Q1, respectively, as the content of Nb O increases. However, the numbers Figure 2.

Generally, co-dopants such as Al and/or P have been used to suppress Yb cluster- ing, and consequently enhance the lasing efficiency. Moreover, the addition of dopants in silica glass favors the formation of photo-induced defects that can decrease the laser performance. Normally these defects appear as a pair of electron/hole trap center and present absorption in the UV-Vis-nearIR region. In this work, Yb doped silica glasses co-doped with Al and/or P were prepared by MCVD method with a special system that supplies all compounds in vapor- phase/gasses.

Silico-phosphate glasses of NaCaPO4-SiO2,

NaCaPO4-AlPO4-SiO2 and NaCaPO4-BPO4-SiO2 sys- tems have been the subject of the presented investi- gations. Silico-phosphate glasses are well known bio- materials as well as precursors for glassy-crystalline materials obtained by controlled crystallization of glass. The interest in glassy-crystalline materials is due to their specific properties which combine prop- erties of glasses with those of crystalline materials. Design of new glassy-crystalline materials requires the detailed knowledge of the precursor glass struc- ture. The analysis of the amorphous materials struc- ture due to the lack of long-distance order, is rather studied by NMR, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy, which are sensitive for short-distance order, than by x-ray methods. The main goal of the present work is detailed structure analysis of the silico-phosphate materials studied by NMR, FTIR and Raman methods. Spec- troscopic studies in the far infrared (FIR) range have made it possible to establish that all the investigated samples have been amorphous giving no distinct bands in FIR Middle infrared (MIR) and Raman in- vestigations together with mathematical spectra decomposition into component bands have shown that the glasses from NaCaPO4-SiO2, NaCaPO4-

AlPO4-SiO2 and NaCaPO4-BPO4-SiO2 system exhibit domain structure. It was confirmed by 23Na 31P, 27Al and 11B NMR studies. 27Al NMR investigations have shown that all aluminium is in tetrahedral coordina- tion (network forming cation). 11B NMR investigations have shown that boron is in tetrahedral and triangle coordination. Investigations of silico-phosphate materials from

NaCaPO4-SiO2, NaCaPO4-AlPO4-SiO2 and NaCaPO4-

BPO4-SiO2 system have made it possible to deter- mine the influence of aluminium and boron on the silico-phosphate glasses structure. This work was supported by Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education under Grant No. N N507393135. Keywords: biomaterials, bioglass, glass structure, glass-ceramic.
