Structural and physical properties of Fe2O3-doped lead vanadate glass

Extract
The role of Fe2O3in the structural and physical properties of ternary lead vanadium iron glass system has been studied in comparison with the binary lead vanadate glasses. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and differential thermal analysis show that homogeneous glasses of composition 10Fe2O3 · xV2O5 · (90 − x)PbO can be obtained for x = 50 to 80 mol%. Observation from the infrared spectroscopy shows that the basic building blocks of these glasses are same as those of crystalline V2O5, while differential thermal analysis and electrical conduction of these glasses suggest that there is a strong role of iron, both in the glass network and in the conduction mechanism for the glasses containing a low percentage of vanadium.
