摘要
Various Ge-As-Se glasses spanning a mean coordination number (MCN) from 2.2 to 2.94 have been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry and Raman spectroscopy. The glass transition temperature T-g was found to increase with increasing MCN, except for those glasses located within the nanoscale phase-separated region of the phase diagram. The evolution of Raman features at wavenumbers from 150 to 350 cm(-1) exhibits two transitionlike features. Merging of the 225 and 250 cm(-1) modes at MCN=2.5 is a symbol of the extinction of Se-Se bonds. Additionally, the appearance of two modes at 280-290 and 170 cm(-1) at MCN > 2.7 come from the defect modes of ethanelike Ge2Se6/2. The increase in the scattering from these defects is an important factor leading to enhanced optical loss in the glasses with high MCN. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.
