Investigation of the structural, thermal, optical, and crystallization properties of novel CuO-modified Li2Pb1-xCuxP2O7 glass system
The study investigates the structural, thermal, optical, and crystallization behavior of the novel Li2Pb1-xCuxP2O7 (0 mol % ≤ x ≤ 1 mol %) glass system, where CuO progressively replaces PbO. The samples were synthesized through the conventional melt-quenching method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the amorphous nature of glasses for compositions up to x = 0.8 mol %, with crystallization occurring at higher CuO contents, leading to copper-based crystalline phases. Density and molar volume measurements reveal a decrease in both parameters as CuO content increases, indicating looser packing within the glass network. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) studies showed that substituting PbO with CuO decreases the glass transition temperature (Tg) and crystallization onset temperature (Tx), suggesting structural changes and increased flexibility in the glass structure. The obtained results reveal that the stability does not consistently follow a single pattern with CuO doping. Notably, the LiPb0.6Cu0,4P2O7 glass exhibits the highest stability. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy further highlighted progressive structural changes in the phosphate network, with shifts in absorption bands attributed to Cu2+ substitution affecting bond angles and network connectivity. The UV–Vis absorption spectra and Tauc plot analysis revealed the interplay between the CuO content and the optical properties in the Li2Pb1-xCuxP2O7 glass system. The optical absorption spectra of the prepared glassy samples depict absorption bands attributed to the t2g→eg transition of the Cu2+ions. Post-crystallization analysis using XRD, FTIR, and UV–Vis spectroscopy revealed a transition from amorphous to crystalline phases. The incorporation of Cu²⁺ ions was assessed to play a crucial role in restructuring the phosphate network, significantly impacting the optical properties of these materials.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids publishes review articles, research papers, and Letters to the Editor on amorphous and glassy materials, including inorganic, organic, polymeric, hybrid and metallic systems. Papers on partially glassy materials, such as glass-ceramics and glass-matrix composites, and papers involving the liquid state are also included in so far as the properties of the liquid are relevant for the formation of the solid.
In all cases the papers must demonstrate both novelty and importance to the field, by way of significant advances in understanding or application of non-crystalline solids; in the case of Letters, a compelling case must also be made for expedited handling.
